Temperature showed just less than 100C

I hate to be posting repair questions, but my car is suicidal.

Today was amazingly hot and humid. I put on my a/c and drove to my destination. Half way there my A/C was barely blowing cold air.

My temperature indicator showed just less than 100C. After turning off the car I wanted to see how hot it was under the hood. The heat was incredible. Everything within the engine compartment was far too hot to touch, even the body panels.

The engine fans turn and the auxiliary fan was on all day.

Is something in needing of repair or should I focus on additional radiators or something?
