September weather forecast
Olomu, Nigeria

September, the first month of the autumn in Olomu, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 21.6°C (70.9°F) and max 29.3°C (84.7°F).

Temperature

September's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still moderately hot 29.3°C (84.7°F) from August's 28.2°C (82.8°F). Olomu's nights in September experience an average temperature drop to a pleasant 21.6°C (70.9°F).

Heat index

For most parts of September, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Fend off the sun's harsh rays with appropriate clothing, a wide-brim hat, and UV-protective sunglasses.
