How To Identify If One Is Experiencing Heat Exhaustion?

What is the relationship between the body core temperature and the skin temperature taken with a temporal thermometer used at the temple. For example, what skin temperature would one expect to see if an outside worker were experiencing heat stress/heat exhaustion but before heat stroke?
