August's 30.9°C (87.6°F). During September, Minamidaitōjima records an average temperature of 24.1°C (75.4°F) at night.
Heat index
September's heat index is calculated to be a scorching 40°C (104°F). Undertake additional safety actions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Persistent activity may induce heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
