Weather in March

March in East Timor marks the beginning of the transition period from the wet season to the drier months. While the tropical monsoon climate persists, there is a noticeable decrease in rainfall compared to the preceding months of January and February. In Dili, the average precipitation falls to 120mm (4.72"), and similar reductions can be observed in the more mountainous interior regions.

Temperatures in March remain relatively stable, comparable to the preceding months. The average high generally hovers around 30°C (86°F), while the average low sits close to 24°C (75.2°F). Despite the gradual decrease in rainfall, the humidity levels remain high due to the continued warmth.

The uniformity of East Timor's climate persists, given the country's small geographic size. However, as usual, slight temperature variations may occur in the mountainous regions, especially during nighttime when it can become marginally cooler.

Moving into April, the downward trend in rainfall continues, signalling the gradual shift towards the onset of the dry season. However, temperatures tend to remain consistent, maintaining the tropical feel of the climate.

With the easing rainfall, March begins to see improved conditions for outdoor activities, though some challenges may still be present due to the lingering moisture, particularly in the mountainous regions where trails may remain muddy. Visibility for diving and other marine activities may also start to improve towards the end of March as the sediment in the water gradually settles. The landscapes continue to thrive, offering a vibrant view of East Timor's natural scenery, boosted by the preceding rainy months.
