Weather in September

The first month of the autumn, September, is still a hot month in Atherton, Louisiana, with an average temperature ranging between min 67.8°F (19.9°C) and max 86.9°F (30.5°C).

Temperature

The onset of September brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), nearly matching the August temperature. In Atherton, an average temperature of 67.8°F (19.9°C) is noted during September nights.

Heat index

The heat index value for September is appraised at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.

Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
