I get this output:

hw.sensors.lm1.temp2=31.50 degC
hw.sensors.lm1.fan1=2070 RPM
But, I'm rather certain that the third line (22.00 degC) is the
actual temp
of the CPU as this is what the BIOS reports as well as other operating
systems (I quad boot this box). This is an under-clocked Intel
Celeron cpu
under very little load with good fans, so while low, that temp of 22
degC is
most likely correct. How does OpenBSD gather this temp?
It asks the CPU. Of course there's not much documentation, so you
shouldn't rely on it to predict the weather.
cpu0 at mainbus0: (uniprocessor)
cpu0: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 430 @ 1.80GHz, 907.57 MHz
