By the time
September rolls around, there is a noticeable decrease in the amount of rainfall to 176mm (6.93"), indicating the end of the peak rainy season in
Raga. The decrease in rainfall does not, however, result in a drastic change in other weather parameters. The city's weather remains warm, and the landscapes, despite getting less rain, continue to thrive. The gradual subsiding of the rainy season coupled with the ample daylight embodies a serene scenery, welcoming the shift towards the dry season.
Temperature
Raga's weather, upon September's arrival, documents an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.8°C (89.2°F), nearly identical to the prior month. During the September nights, an average temperature of 20.3°C (68.5°F) is observed in Raga.
Heat index
September's heat index is calculated to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
