Weather in New South Memphis in September

A good month. September works. It is not the peak, but nothing about it fights you. Highs average 30.7 °C, lows 18.4 °C, and rain falls on 9 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

September ranks 6 of 12 in New South Memphis: past the worst of the year but short of October, which is the month to book if the dates are open.

Rain on 9 days, 3 of them heavy. Enough to need a plan B, not enough to need a plan around it. Pack for 30.7 °C days and 18.4 °C nights; the spread matters more here than any single number.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 5 days clear 35 °C, so a serious heatwave is normal rather than notable. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest September day reached 38.8 °C and the coldest night fell to 6.8 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 84 mm — roughly 104% of the month's rain in one day.

September is moderately variable: 11 mm in the driest year against 210 mm in the wettest, around an average of 81 mm. Roughly two Septembers in three land near that average, and the third does something else entirely.

Wind is light at 7.5 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 65%.

How September sits in the year

The month is on the way down: 3.3 °C cooler than August, with October dropping another 6.6 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.

Daylight in September

12.4 hours of daylight, losing 1.1 hours across the month. That is between New South Memphis's extremes of 14.5 and 9.8 hours, so days are long enough not to constrain the plan.

An inland climate

With no coast nearby, the year swings a fair way — 34.8 °C between the warmest afternoons and the coldest nights, wider than any coastal city at this latitude would manage.

How busy it gets

Shoulder. The value months — prices ease off and you get the place closer to itself.

Crowd levels are estimated from climate desirability and school-holiday calendars, not from visitor numbers.

September in New South Memphis versus nearby
