Weather in March
Temperature
The transition from February to March sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still moderately hot 27.7°C (81.9°F), from a not significantly different 27.5°C (81.5°F). In Cristóbal, March's nights observe an average temperature dip to an agreeable 21.3°C (70.3°F).Heat index
The heat index value during March is estimated at a tropical 30°C (86°F). Persisting in activity during long-term exposure might induce weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
