September weather forecast
Letpadan, Myanmar

September marks the gradual tapering off of the monsoon season in Letpadan. Although the city still experiences frequent showers, rainfall amount shows a significant dip, almost halving from August's 350mm (13.78") to 219mm (8.62"). While a majority of days remain cloudy, an increase in sunlight duration indicates a shift towards clearer days. The monsoon's typical high humidity and stable temperature ranges continue to prevail. A slight slowdown in wind speeds becomes perceptible, reflecting the ambiance of a fading monsoon.

Temperature

September's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a tropical 30.3°C (86.5°F), slightly deviating from August's 29.8°C (85.6°F). Throughout the month of September, Letpadan witnesses an average temperature of 24°C (75.2°F).

Heat index

September's average heat index is evaluated at a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. 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 hold particular importance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
