Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Pikes Peak, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 86.9°F (30.5°C) and min 72°F (22.2°C).

The dawn of September sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), subtly contrasting with August's 89.8°F (32.1°C). During September, Pikes Peak observes a consistent average nighttime temperature of 72°F (22.2°C).

Heat index

For September, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.
Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
