Weather in September

The first month of the autumn, September, is still a tropical month in Turps, Louisiana, with an average temperature varying between 70.5°F (21.4°C) and 88°F (31.1°C).

Temperature

The dawn of September sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88°F (31.1°C), subtly contrasting with August's 92.7°F (33.7°C). An average low-temperature of 70.5°F (21.4°C) is observed during September nights.

Heat index

For most parts of September, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 104°F (40°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

A wide-brimmed hat is a staple for defending the face, eyes, ears, and neck from the Sun. Be advised! The UV radiation from the Sun can be almost doubled due to the reflective properties of snow.
