I don't know, but I've noticed a general drop in my body temperature from 36,8'C to 35,8'C since the clusters started last autumn. The doctor didn't think there's anything to it.

Definately.  I used to take sauna a lot, triggered me every time, so I stopped.
Hot tubs are bad news too.

I am more susceptible to heat when in cycle, and sweating makes the CH worse.

I've got hit quite often just minutes after a warm shower, so it is absolutely one of the things which trigger ch for me.

Remarkably little in the med literture on the topic although several of us have reported elevated body heat as a trigger for an attack.
--------
Lancet. 1999 Sep 18;354(9183):1001-2.  
Comment in:
Lancet. 2000 Jan 8;355(919Cool:147.  
 
A new cluster headache precipitant: increased body heat.
 
Blau JN, Engel HO.
 
Exercise, a hot bath, or elevated environmental temperature provoked cluster headaches, within 1 h, in 75 out of 200 patients. This new observation accords with recognised precipitants--alcohol, histamine, and gyceryl trinitrate--perhaps via generalised vasodilatation or hypothalamic activation.

interesting thread- something i have been going back and forth with with myself too.    When I am feeling bad, lots of shadows, exhausted from the stress of dealing with the cycle  i want a hot bath-   I then always feel worse after, shadows are worse , etc.    
 
So i have been thinking that the heat is trigger for me-  I live in nc and a couple of days this week have been warm almost hot to point of sweating too.  But i didn't notice that my head felt worse then-  Been wondering whether if this cycle goes in summer and summer is extremely hot here- will that extend the cycle or make shadows worse?
 
something i've been thinking about too

High temperature was a definite trigger for my husband. Even when out of cycle, a few weeks ago when he did a lot of work outside under the hot sun and got tired and sweaty, he got a lingering shadow which was building slowly. He had to stop, take a cold shower and a Red bull before that one went away.
 
I think excessive heat causes vasodilation which can trigger a hit.

When I'm getting hit my internal thermostat goes sky high. My house stays COLD - I just can't stand heat at all (baths excluded - they don't seem to bother me).  
 
I do wear sunglasses outside (can't stand direct sunlight on my eyes at any time - winter or summer).  
 
I've been on topamax since 99 so I don't think that's the reason - I think it's just the darn headaches.
