Weather in September

In September, Longview residents begin to feel the gradual downswing in temperatures. Despite the fall, the sweltering heat of August still lingers, resulting in an average high of 88.7°F (31.5°C). The city experiences a decrease in daylight hours and rainfall, giving way to less humid conditions. The changing season paints colorful landscapes, welcoming the beginning of autumn.

Temperature

The transition into September subtly indicates a reduction in the average high-temperature, down to a hot 88.7°F (31.5°C) from August's torrid 95°F (35°C). Longview records an average low of 67.5°F (19.7°C) throughout the nights in September.

Heat index

Throughout September, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 102.2°F (39°C). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
