The beginning of September brings a minor change in the average high-temperature, shifting from a torrid 95°F (35°C) in August to a tropical 88.9°F (31.6°C). An average low-temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C) is expected in Center during September.

Heat index

For September, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Note: A typical high UV index of 6 in September suggests the following recommendations:
Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Consider a wide-brim hat essential for effective sun defense covering your face, neck, and eyes. Foresee this! The reflection from snow can nearly double the intensity of UV radiation from the Sun.
