Weather in September

The first month of the autumn, September, is still a warm month in Gifford, Florida, with an average temperature fluctuating between 85.5°F (29.7°C) and 77.4°F (25.2°C).

Temperature

September experiences an average high-temperature of a warm 85.5°F (29.7°C), barely different from August's 87.4°F (30.8°C). Recording a slight drop from the daily maximum, Gifford notes an average low temperature of 77.4°F (25.2°C) in the month of September.

Heat index

During September, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
