September weather forecast
Feshi, Democratic Republic of Congo

September marks the end of summer with mild transitions in the weather conditions in Feshi. A slight dip in temperature takes the city back to a more civilized warmth. Also, the city again turns a bit moist with a considerable leap in rains to 79mm (3.11"). However, the consistency in daylight and sunshine hours allows ample opportunities for exploring the city irrespective of the rains. Also, the desirable visibility and comfortable wind speed ensure an amicable outdoor climate.

Heat index

The heat index in September is estimated at a scorching 42°C (107.6°F). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.

Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation. Take heed! Reflection from the snow can almost amplify the Sun's UV radiation by double.
