Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Harvard, is also a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 72°F (22.2°C) and 87.3°F (30.7°C).

Temperature

The onset of September brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 87.3°F (30.7°C), nearly matching the August temperature. During the month of September, Harvard's nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 72°F (22.2°C).

Heat index

The heat index value during September is evaluated at a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
