Sleep,

Unlike those Jr high school special needs boys here, I did read that you asked about September. You were clear enough. How cold or wet is of course nature's call for that unpredictable month. I didn't belabor the month point for sake of the trolls on here. I mentioned late fall because common sense obviously would recommend colder weather shelter requirements. Hence the floor and extra half pound makes sense. Shelter wouldn't be my choice for weight savings without lots of experience. September in your location, etc. is a subjective judgement call.

Best to you in preparation for a safe and enjoyable harvest.
