September weather forecast
Mentada, India

September, the last month of the rainy (monsoon) season in Mentada, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 30°C (86°F) and 22.4°C (72.3°F).

Temperature

The transition from August to September sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still hot 30°C (86°F), from a not significantly different 30.3°C (86.5°F). September brings with it a nighttime average temperature of 22.4°C (72.3°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in September is calculated to be a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Heightened precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Stay out of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide complete protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
