Michael,

You want to add the Option: ColorFunctionScaling -> False, to your
ContourPlot. Then the colors will be determined by the actual temperature
value. With the default value of True, colors are determined by their
relative position between the actual maximum and minimum values in the
particular plot. You may also wish to alter your color function so that it
is based on actual temperature.
