September weather forecast
Gurgaon, India

September, the last month of the rainy (monsoon) season in Gurgaon, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 25.9°C (78.6°F) and 34.5°C (94.1°F).

Temperature

September's advent presents an average high-temperature of a tropical 34.5°C (94.1°F), indicating a slight variation from the conditions of the previous month. September nights cool down to an average low-temperature of 25.9°C (78.6°F).

Heat index

Throughout September, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 42°C (107.6°F). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical 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.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades.
