Default oil temp.

i am using a meat thermometer in the dipstick hole to check oil temp.
the probe doesn't quite touch the oil when running though.
am i getting an accurate reading like this, or could i be getting a higher
reading due to the air in the case being hotter than the oil?
thanks in advance for any replies
