Little bit of high temps when idle while ac is on?

Okay so when driving normally on the road while ac is on temp gauge stays around 1/4 of the way up but when sitting and letting it idle the temps get a little high. I’ll have a pic of it and wanted to see if you guys think this is normal?

My S5 n/t with 5MT once acted similarly. I replaced the fan clutch and temp went back to the normal range.

Agreed, probably the fan. Mine gets "high" to 1/3 the way when sitting with the AC on in ~35C°.
