Weather in September
Temperature
The initiation of September records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.4°F (30.8°C), displaying a near consistency with the previous month. During September, the nighttime temperature in Columbia, Mississippi, averages of 68.2°F (20.1°C).Heat index
The heat index in September is computed to be a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Heightened precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important 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.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.
