7/8 to 'HOT' you mean? That would be really hot... I would look into a blocked thermostat, bad fan or fan relay, leaking coolant, old coolant, blocked coolant passage or leaky radiator or hose.

Have it checked out and don't drive it no more til it's fixed. If it ever gets too close to 'HOT' mark, pull over and tow it.
