    Can you hear radiator fans coming on? They should come on when the coolant gets hot. Maybe a fuse is blown or a bad relay. That would be the first things I would look for.

    Did you drive it? If so did the temps come down. I would not idle my car for that long. 5 mins max. You really want air flow through the radiators. As stated though, the fans should have come on.

    Fans should kick on around 190-200F (the mark just before 210) if you are sitting idling.

    +1 on the fans but airflow will assist in cooling. Check fuse/relay, they are know to pop.
