Weather in September

The first month of the autumn, September, is also a moderately hot month in Valparaiso, Florida, with an average temperature varying between 74.7°F (23.7°C) and 85.8°F (29.9°C).

Temperature

The shift from August to September is characterized by an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C), not significantly different from the 88.3°F (31.3°C) of August. Throughout September nights, Valparaiso registers an average low-temperature of 74.7°F (23.7°C).

Heat index

For most parts of September, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. 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 physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
