September weather forecast
Daloa, Ivory Coast

September is a notable month as it experiences the highest rainfall of the year, a significant 125mm (4.92"). This results in cloudy days filled with heavy showers. However, the weather remains warm, and the wind speed decreases marginally. The sunnier circumstances of August retreat, leading to a dip in the UV index.

Temperature

Upon the onset of September, Daloa witnesses an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F), showing a close resemblance to the prior month. During September, the nighttime temperature averages of 21.2°C (70.2°F).

Heat index

In September, the average heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 39°C (102.2°F). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. 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 'real feel' or 'feels like', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 89%, September is the most humid month.

Rainfall

September is the month with the most rainfall. Rain falls for 24.1 days and accumulates 125mm (4.92") of precipitation.

UV index

In September, the average daily maximum UV index is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.
Note: The UV index of 6 during September leads to these advisories:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. The Sun's UV radiation is at its strongest between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Minimize direct exposure to the sun during this period. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
