Weather in September

September in Dubai marks the gradual fading of searing summer temperatures. The change in weather from that in August is subtle, yet the cooler nights are perceptible. The city gradually becomes lesser hot and the days begin to shorten. There's virtually no rainfall and the sea remains warm with temperatures reaching 33.2°C (91.8°F). This month gives respite from the fierce summer, appealing to travelers who prefer a slightly cooler climate.

Temperature

The advent of September in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, reveals an average high-temperature of a still torrid 37.5°C (99.5°F), showing minimal difference from the prior month. Dubai's temperature in September lowers to a consistent average of 30.2°C (86.4°F) during the nights.

Heat index

The heat index in September is calculated to be a blazing hot 49°C (120.2°F). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
