Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Sarasota Springs, is also a hot month, with an average temperature varying between 86.7°F (30.4°C) and 77.5°F (25.3°C).

Temperature

The arrival of September denotes a barely perceptible change in the average high-temperatures to a still tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C) from August's 88.3°F (31.3°C). During September, Sarasota Springs records an average temperature of 77.5°F (25.3°C) at night.

Heat index

During September, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

In September, the average relative humidity is 75%.

Note: A daily high UV index of 7 in September leads to these guidelines:
Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
