Coolant Temp Gauge?

This last month my coolant temperature gauge needle is starting a half inch under the "C" mark.

Anyone else's acting funny?

You dont have an oil temperature gauge unless you added an after market one.

Do you mean engine coolant temperature?

I was going to say it's likely just the colder weather, since here in Canada on a -20 C day(-4 F) the engine temp needle starts pretty darn low. But you're in California, so I'm not sure sure. Shouldn't be getting too chilly there I wouldn't think.
