September in
Özdere witnesses a gradual descent from peak summer conditions. Noticeable shifts in weather conditions are evident with temperatures slightly declining to 27.6°C (81.7°F). Whilst the sea temperature remains appealing for swimmers, daylight hours begin to reduce. With an increase in rainfall, the dry spell breaks, signifying the onset of autumn. Transitioning from September to
October, the weather patterns substantiate a notable alteration towards cooler temperatures.
Temperature
The arrival of September signals a subtle shift in temperature, down from a tropical 30.6°C (87.1°F) in
August to a moderately hot 27.6°C (81.7°F). In the month of September, Özdere records a consistent average low-temperature of 16.5°C (61.7°F).
Heat index
The heat index value during September is calculated to be 29°C (84.2°F). Prolonged exposure combined with continuous activity could lead to exhaustion, and possibly heat cramps.
Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. 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 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in September is 62%.
Rainfall
In Özdere, during September, the rain falls for 5 days and regularly aggregates up to 16mm (0.63") of precipitation. In Özdere, during the entire year, the rain falls for 98 days and collects up to 712mm (28.03") of precipitation.
Sea temperature
In Özdere, the average seawater temperature in September is 23°C (73.4°F).
Note: Factoring in a person's dislike for cold, combined with conditions like sunshine, wind, and temperature, a dip in 23°C (73.4°F) waters might be satisfying. (It is worth noting that the Olympic swimming waters are maintained between 25°C (77°F) and 28°C (82.4°F).)
Daylight
The average length of the day in September is 12h and 26min.
On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 06:41 and sunset at 19:41. On the last day of September, sunrise is at 07:06 and sunset at 18:56 +03.
Sunshine
The average sunshine in September is 11h.
UV index
In September, the average daily maximum UV index is 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in September suggests the following recommendations:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest, limit direct exposure to the Sun and note that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Shield yourself from the harmful effects of UV radiation with sun-protective attire, a hat, and quality sunglasses. Take caution! The UV rays from the Sun gain strength from sand and water reflections.
