The advent of March presents an average high-temperature of a hot 34.9°C (94.8°F), maintaining a close correlation with the preceding month. Contrary to the day's heat, an average low-temperature of 20.4°C (68.7°F) is recorded during the nights in March in Saldaña, Colombia.

Heat index

During March, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 44°C (111.2°F). Stay vigilant: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke may follow prolonged exertion.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in March is 58%.

UV index

Note: In March, a daily maximum UV index of 7 leads to the following instructions:
Avoid overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can burn in under 20 minutes. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
