Heat index

In March, the average heat index is computed to be a scorching 44°C (111.2°F). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. 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.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

Humidity

In March, the average relative humidity is 74%.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are January through August, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: In March, a regular UV index of 7 translates into these guidelines:
Undertake precautions and comply with sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye injury is vital. Remember that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
