September weather forecast
Aurora, Suriname

Weather conditions in September maintain the high-temperature paradigm intrinsic to August's mood, clocking onto 33.5°C (92.3°F), making it one of Aurora, Suriname's hottest months. Meanwhile, rainfall statistics plummet to an annual low of 47mm (1.85"), underscoring a noticeable change since the persistent showers earlier in the year. Society, however, stays consistent with the year's previous observations. Mirroring the rainfall, relative humidity marks a dip, paving the way for drier conditions. The highlight of the September weather lies jointly in the unrelenting high temperatures and the ushering in of drier days.

Temperature

The transition into September is marked with an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.3°C (91.9°F), showing an insignificant shift from August's 32°C (89.6°F). Aurora documents a marked decrease from day to night, with an average low of 20.4°C (68.7°F) throughout September.

Heat index

In September, the heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 46°C (114.8°F). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are quite likely. Heatstroke becomes a risk with continued exertion.
Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Humidity

In September, the average relative humidity in Aurora is 74%.

UV index

August through November, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: During September, 7 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Inhibit overexposure. Warding off sun damage is of utmost importance. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
