Weather in September

September signifies the dawn of fall, with a slight drop in temperatures compared to the peak summer months. Paving the way for a more pleasant climate, the weather makes a slow transition from the extremes of summer. As the rain lessens, the landscape of Arlington transforms, enabling residents to relish the unique blend of summer and autumn. Increased visibility up to 6 miles allows for picturesque views of the transforming flora. The incidence of winds picks a bit to 6.6mph (10.6km/h), offering coolness to the setting festive atmosphere.

Temperature

Transition into September subtly marks a drop in the average high-temperature, moderately moving from a fiery hot 95.9°F (35.5°C) in August to a hot 88°F (31.1°C). An average nighttime temperature of 69.6°F (20.9°C) is noted during the month of September.

Heat index

In September, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Adopt extra preventive measures, the occurrence of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is likely. Heatstroke may follow extended activity.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
