September, the first month of the autumn in Arcadia, is still a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 88.3°F (31.3°C) and an average low of 66.9°F (19.4°C).

Temperature

The onset of September entails a subtle temperature shift, as the average high-temperature eases from a hot 94.1°F (34.5°C) in August to a still tropical 88.3°F (31.3°C). September sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 66.9°F (19.4°C).

Heat index

The heat index in September is computed to be a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 primarily vital for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.
