As Melton welcomes September, the average high-temperature is noted at a still tropical 87.3°F (30.7°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. Melton observes an average low-temperature of 67.8°F (19.9°C) during September.

Heat index

For most parts of September, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
