Hey, so my basking spot lately at random times jumps up to 100 to 105 most the day its at 90-98 but for around two hours its 100 102 and up to 105 not often 105. Is this ok or harmful. I have the fogger right beside the basking spot humidity is great there. I also have a sprinkler that goes off every two hours to help with cool down.

That is fine. Just make sure the ambient temps aren't spiking too high at those times too. As warmer weather moves in, hopefully, temps will have to be adjusted.
