Weather in September

The first month of the autumn, September, is still a tropical month in Carto, Mississippi, with an average temperature varying between 87.1°F (30.6°C) and 68.4°F (20.2°C).

Temperature

September notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.1°F (30.6°C), subtly differing from August's 90.5°F (32.5°C). The mean low-temperature during September nights is a pleasant 68.4°F (20.2°C).

Heat index

In September, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Note: The daily maximum UV index of 6 in September interprets into the following advice:
Inhibit overexposure. Warding off sun damage is of utmost importance. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
