Temperature

Transitioning into September, Bamoundo experiences an average high-temperature of a hot 30.3°C (86.5°F), marking a minor shift from the preceding month. The average low-temperature during September nights is a warm 23°C (73.4°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during September is computed to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Humidity

Persist with safeguards and heed sun safety doctrines. Keeping sunburn at bay is of prime importance. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
