September weather forecastMelaghar, India

Weather in September

The last month of the rainy (monsoon) season, September, is another tropical month in Melaghar, India, with an average temperature ranging between max 31.5°C (88.7°F) and min 25.1°C (77.2°F).

Temperature

The transition into September marks the average high-temperature at a still hot 31.5°C (88.7°F), differing minimally from August's 31.8°C (89.2°F). Melaghar records an average nighttime low of 25.1°C (77.2°F) in September.

Heat index

The heat index for September is computed to be an extremely hot 44°C (111.2°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Humidity

The months with the highest humidity are July through September, with an average relative humidity of 84%.

UV index

March through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: The maximum daily UV index of 7 during September translates into the following directions:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
