Temperature

At the onset of September, Baker records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88°F (31.1°C), showing little deviation from the preceding month. In Baker, the September nights cool down to an average low of 70°F (21.1°C).

Heat index

The heat index for September is computed to be a blisteringly hot 105.8°F (41°C). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.
Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. 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 'feels like', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
