The average heat index in March is calculated to be a fiery hot 37°C (98.6°F). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 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 evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
