Weather in March
Temperature
With the advent of March, Kimpese's high-temperatures adjust to a still hot 30.3°C (86.5°F), closely aligning with the preceding month. Kimpese experiences an average low-temperature of 21°C (69.8°F) in month of March.Heat index
During March, the heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

The months with the lowest UV index are January through August, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: In March, a regular UV index of 6 translates into these guidelines:
Persist in precautions and follow sun safety policies. Keeping sunburn at bay is imperative. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest, limit direct exposure to the Sun and note that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
