Based on the other answers, I think the best bet would be to get a baseline--normal temp--and from there just look for a rise. IOW, it might not measure actual temperature accurately, but the the consensus seems to be that various types of glass will pass 'some' IR; so it might be good enough to indicate a change. As long as you know what it 'should' read, you can tell if it's above normal.
Of course it will take some experimenting.
