From the data I have gathered, the angle between the hydrogen atoms in H20 do not significantly change because of temperature. A rise in temperature increases both H's energy levels at about the same. This increases both the push of the non-bonded electrons and the pull of the bonded ones. They balance each other out. This keeps the angle at about 105 degrees(unless you could heat just one hydrogen). I hoped this answered your question.
