Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Oglethorpe, is still a warm month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 67.8°F (19.9°C) and an average high of 85.5°F (29.7°C).

Temperature

The transition from August to September sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C), from a not significantly different 89.2°F (31.8°C). September nights cool down to an average low-temperature of 67.8°F (19.9°C).

Heat index

The average heat index in September is computed to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for 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.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.

The average relative humidity in September is 73%.
