Local codes and preferences will differ, but I believe most of us shower above 105, 110 is ideal for available showering temp, and it should not exceed 120, which is borderline scalding.
I set my hot water heater at 140 degrees, because this provides 3x as much 110 degree water as setting it at 120.

Why you can step out of the shower into a warm bath - room and begin to shiver?
Well when you are in a shower, you gotta think, you are having a constant body temperature of the water! But when you get out of the shower into a warm bathroom, you begin to shiver because even though the bathroom is warm, its a lower temperature than what your shower water was just at, which causes your temperature to somwhat drop...make sense? Water is evaporating from the body. Heat is converted into the energy needed for the process of evaporation.
