Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Apalachicola, is still a warm month, with an average temperature ranging between min 76.1°F (24.5°C) and max 85.1°F (29.5°C).

Temperature

On the advent of September, Apalachicola's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a warm 85.1°F (29.5°C) from August's 87.4°F (30.8°C).

Heat index

September's mean heat index is computed to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes. Stay alert! Reflective properties of sand and water amplify the Sun's UV radiation.
