Transitioning into
Ebeye’s "fall" season,
September showcases a notable ascension in rainfall amounts, moving from 257mm (10.12") in
August to 301mm (11.85"). The soothing warm temperatures persist, accompanied by a slight reduction in daylight. Observing the vast open sea, one may notice similar sea temperatures to those in August. Despite the increased precipitation, the island maintains its vibrant charm. Under the canopy of clouds, the island sometimes reveals mesmerizing sights and experiences.
Temperature
The highest point of temperatures falls in
March, August through
October, when the average high-temperature ascends to 30.6°C (87.1°F).
Heat index
For most parts of September, the heat index is computed to be a scorching 40°C (104°F). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in September in Ebeye is 80.9%.
