Basically, the mirrors are still glowing white-hot, for a value of "white" that matters to an eye that sees in a spectrum consisting mostly of infrared.
But things should be cooling down fast. There's a lot of different bits that all have different temperatures; here's a 2019 projected timeline of where we expect each bit to be. (We should be around day 30 today)
