Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Harahan, is still a tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between min 75°F (23.9°C) and max 86.5°F (30.3°C).

Temperature

The shift into September records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), subtly varied from August's 88.7°F (31.5°C). Harahan usually reports an average low-temperature of 75°F (23.9°C) during the month of September.

Heat index

For most parts of September, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
