Default Car getting hot

On the way to work today i was sitting in traffic and my temp went up almost all the way. I put the heat on high and it went back down to about 3/4 after about a minute and then back to normal temp after about 3-4 min. When i was driving the temp was fine. How bad is it that it was above normal temp for about 5 min? Its an h22 btw.

Anytime that gauge goes more than half way up its bad. Get that thing checked out asap.
