September, the first month of the autumn in Iris, is still a warm month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 84.6°F (29.2°C) and an average low of 64.9°F (18.3°C).

Temperature

The beginning of September subtly marks a decrease in the average high-temperature, transitioning from a hot 90.1°F (32.3°C) in August to a moderately hot 84.6°F (29.2°C). An average low-temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) is observed during September nights.

Heat index

During September, the heat index is computed to be a hot 93.2°F (34°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
