Weather in September
Temperature
The transition to September results in a modest reduction in average high-temperature, moving from a hot 90.9°F (32.7°C) in August to a warm 83.3°F (28.5°C). Fort Dodge observes a substantial disparity between daytime high and the average low-temperature of 61.7°F (16.5°C) during September nights.Heat index
The heat index value during September is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Ongoing exposure and activity could lead to a state of exhaustion, with a chance of heat cramps.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
