Weather in March
Temperature
Yumbi experiences an average high-temperature of a still hot 32.6°C (90.7°F) in March, marking an insignificant shift from 32.9°C (91.2°F) in February. Yumbi's nights in March experience an average temperature drop to a moderately hot 23.2°C (73.8°F).Heat index
In March, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 44°C (111.2°F). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Continue precautions and advocate sun safety advice. Deterrence of sunburn is indispensable. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
