Moreover, this month signals the onset of autumn accompanied by an increase in rainfall levels. This shift ushers in more comfortable weather conditions amid a decrease in daylight hours. Despite being relatively cooler, the UV radiation index remains high, necessitating appropriate protection when outdoors.

Temperature

September in Garland sees a slight reduction in average high-temperature, with a shift from a very hot 95.5°F (35.3°C) in August to a hot 87.6°F (30.9°C). Throughout September nights, Garland experiences a consistent temperature average of 69.8°F (21°C).

Heat index

For September, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
