September weather forecast
Diema, Mali

September sees a gradual drop-off in the amount of rainfall, with precipitation reducing to 58mm (2.28"). Temperatures slightly increase, pointing towards the upcoming end of the rainy season. Despite the reduced rainfall, the month retains a relatively high level of humidity. As we transition away from the wet season, the climate begins to stabilize. The prevailing winds begin to pick up, contributing to cooler nights and aiding in the dispersal of rainclouds.

Temperature

As Diema transitions into September, the average high-temperature stands at a very hot 36°C (96.8°F), offering little variation from the preceding month. In Diema, the expected average low-temperature for September is a warm 26.4°C (79.5°F).

Heat index

In September, the average heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 45°C (113°F). Precaution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are possible. Heatstroke is a serious risk with continued exertion.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. 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.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Being careless can result in skin and eye damage. Always take the necessary safety measures. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
