Temperature

The arrival of September in Dajabon sees a recorded average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F), showing little divergence from the previous month's conditions. An average low-temperature of 24.3°C (75.7°F) is expected in Dajabon, Dominican Republic, during September.

Heat index

September's mean heat index is computed to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to 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.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized.
