March weather forecast
Man, Ivory Coast

March weather in the city principally differentiates itself by an increase in rainfalls, reaching a significant 125mm (4.92"). A settled trend towards wetter conditions is observed, with the temperature gradually increasing and the relative humidity also rising. Despite the higher cloudiness blanketing the city, the daylight hours remain relatively stable as compared to February. Thus, March ushers in a decisive shift in Man's weather profile.

Temperature

Man experiences a recorded average high-temperature of a still hot 33.4°C (92.1°F) in March, closely aligned with February's 34°C (93.2°F). Nightly average temperatures in March reveal a significant dip from daytime highs, registering a consistent a pleasant 20.9°C (69.6°F).

Heat index

March's mean heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 46°C (114.8°F). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized.
