Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Scotland, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 68°F (20°C) and an average high of 88°F (31.1°C).

Temperature

On the advent of September, Scotland's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a still hot 88°F (31.1°C) from August's 91.9°F (33.3°C). During September nights, Scotland witnesses a consistent average temperature of 68°F (20°C).

Heat index

September's average heat index is computed to be a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one'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 are particularly relevant to children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
