Temperature

The arrival of September in Minden, Louisiana, suggests a slight decrease in the average high-temperature, moving from 94.6°F (34.8°C) in August to a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C). Minden, in September, observes a steady average low-temperature of 67.3°F (19.6°C).

Heat index

September's heat index is appraised at a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
