                                           A Rainy Month, But Not Too Gloomy

Liverpool typically experiences around 15 days of rain in September, with rainfall averaging 44mm (1.73 inches). While that might sound like a lot, it's part of the city’s usual autumnal charm. Rainy days in Liverpool often come with scattered showers, giving way to some drier spells in between.

Temperature: Mild Yet Cooling Down

Daytime temperatures in September hover around 16.6°C (61.9°F), with cooler evenings dropping to about 11.2°C (52.2°F). If you’re packing for a visit, layers are key! Think light jackets for the day and a cozy sweater for the cooler nights.

Sunshine and Daylight

Although September starts with around 12 hours and 41 minutes of daylight, the days gradually get shorter as we move through the month, with sunset around 6:50 pm by the end of September. The sunshine hours are modest, averaging 4.4 hours per day, so while you may not be basking in sunlight all day, there are still plenty of bright spells to enjoy.

Sea Temperature: Not Ideal for Swimming

If you're thinking of taking a dip in the Mersey, the average sea temperature is 16.2°C (61.2°F), which is quite chilly for most. Unless you’re a fan of cold-water swimming, it's better to admire the sea from the shore!

UV Index: Moderate

The UV index remains at a moderate level of 4, which means while it's not blistering, you should still be cautious, especially during the midday hours. Don’t forget your sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat if you're outdoors for long periods.
