Weather in September

The first month of the autumn, September, is still a tropical month in Waggaman, Louisiana, with an average temperature ranging between min 75°F (23.9°C) and max 86.5°F (30.3°C).

Temperature

The beginning of September records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), marking a negligible difference from August's 88.7°F (31.5°C). During the month of September, Waggaman anticipates a mean low-temperature of 75°F (23.9°C).

Heat index

It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
