Muffler heat transmitted to trunk?

2002 RL, 108k miles: The right-hand side of my trunk, especially the "dish" area right above the muffler gets extremely hot.... is this normal? I reached up around the muffler to see if there was any holes on the top-side... couldn't feel any. The heat shield appears to be in good shape.
