Weather in Dubai in September
September in Dubai is the hard heat. Outdoor plans belong to the ends of the day. The middle is for indoors or water.
In UAE, this is how Dubai actually wears September, not how a country centroid would. Compared with August and January, September sits in the middle of Dubai's year.
Pack for Dubai in September, not for a brochure that was photographed in another season.

What to expect
Daytime
Fierce heat in Dubai in September. Start early. Hide in the middle. Come out again when the sun drops.
This is not a month for a packed walking itinerary. Water, shade, and a schedule that admits the climate is in charge.
Rain
Rain is not the story in Dubai in September. Pack for sun. A shower would be news, not a plan.
Do not build the trip around weather windows. Build it around shade if it is hot, and around getting outside if it is not.
Evening
Evenings stay warm.
