Thermostat is certainly a #1 suspect. Do the electric cooling fans come on? They are controlled by a thermo switch on the radiator just below the main inlet hose. If they don't come on, it will overheat in traffic/slow driving.

Also, some cooling leaks only leak when the engine is hot. Could be losing coolant to one of those. Could be a clogged radiator or a weak water pump. Worst case scenario would be a bad head gasket.
