Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Terrytown, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 76.3°F (24.6°C) and an average high of 86.5°F (30.3°C).

Temperature

With the onset of September, a modest change to a still hot 86.5°F (30.3°C) from August's 89.4°F (31.9°C) is noted in high-temperature. Throughout September, an average low-temperature of 76.3°F (24.6°C) is expected.

Heat index

For most parts of September, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
