September weather forecastMadanibougou, Mali

Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Madanibougou, is still a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 22.5°C (72.5°F) and an average high of 32.5°C (90.5°F).

Temperature

The onset of September marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.5°C (90.5°F), hardly differing from August's 30.8°C (87.4°F). Throughout the month of September, the nighttime temperature dips to an average of 22.5°C (72.5°F).

Heat index

Throughout September, the heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 44°C (111.2°F). Guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are foreseeable. Prolonged effort may bring about heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in September is 74%.

UV index

The average daily maximum UV index in September is 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: The daily high UV index of 7 during September translates into the following recommendations:
Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
