engine temp

so i had my radiator replaced maybe a month ago and now im always lookin at the temp gauge when im driving around its about 180* which i guess is normal. but when i stop at a light it climbs up to 210*ish and if its a long light or im just idling after driving around a bit it climbs past 210* but not into the red. ive heard that when you play with the radiator somethings get messed up like the coolant sensor.

is this normal? or is it the thermo not opening all the way? a fan or both fans not working right?

any insight would be helpful
