Human temperature variation effects-

COLD

37°C (98.6°F) - Normal body temperature (which varies between about 36-37.5°C (96.8-99.5°F)
36°C (96.8°F) - Mild to moderate shivering (this drops this low during sleep). May be a normal body temperature.
35°C (95.0°F) - (Hypothermia) is less than 35°C (95.0°F) - Intense shivering, numbness and blueish/greyness of the skin. There is the possibility of heart irritability.
34°C (93.2°F) - Severe shivering, loss of movement of fingers, blueness and confusion. Some behavioural changes may take place.
In your case it is only mildly cold. so you need not worry. If it goes below 95.0 please see your doctor ASAP. Good food and regular exercises will improve your general health and also streamline your body temperature. Yoga and meditation will also yield good result. Please do not worry.

37°C (98.6°F) - Normal body temperature (which varies between about 36.123-37.5°C (96.8-99.5°F). The normal temperature varies by person, age, time of day, and where on the body the temperature was taken. Your body temperature is usually highest in the evening. It can be raised by physical activity, strong emotion, eating, heavy clothing, medications, high room temperature, and high humidity.

A constant low body temperature could mean you have a low basement metabolic rate. You can try to increase this by doing more regular vigorous excercise.
I know my brother trains like a nut & he's never cold : )

There is a range of normal and this is well within it. Mine, on the other hand is always above normal, like around 100.2. They are always trying to make something of it when I go in for flu shots/etc, until I remind them to look at all the previous years temperatures.

Its not a problem. Not everyone is 98.6 and 96.8 is normal for you so you dont need to worry.

It could be normal (your normal) but if you are having signs of a thyroid condition, I would make an appointment with a Doc and have him/her check your thyroid.
