What to pack

What September feels like

September usually delivers the first genuinely cool morning, and the whole city notices on the same day. Remnants of tropical systems reach this far inland sometimes; Hugo came through in September and is still the local benchmark for it.

Expect about 5 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. There’s a little humidity in the air, but nothing that changes your plans. about 5 afternoons top 90°.
