Temperature

September is the warmest month, with the temperature often reaching an average high of 32.5°C (90.5°F) and an average low of 22.8°C (73°F).

Heat index

In September, the average heat index is calculated to be a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. 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 essentially critical for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. 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. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
