What to pack

What September feels like

The heat holds through most of September and locals get openly impatient with it. Late in the month the monsoon winds down and the first evening that turns pleasant gets discussed like news.

Real rain shows up maybe one day all month; the rest stay dry. Humidity stays comfortable; the air never feels heavy. Most afternoons push past 90°.
