Weather in September

September, the first month of the autumn in Porter Heights, is still a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 89.1°F (31.7°C) and min 71.2°F (21.8°C).

Temperature

The onset of September entails a subtle temperature shift, as the average high-temperature eases from a sweltering 95.2°F (35.1°C) in August to a hot 89.1°F (31.7°C). An average low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C) is recorded in the month of September.

Heat index

The average heat index in September is computed to be an extremely hot 105.8°F (41°C). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
