Moreover, the relative humidity drops slightly making the climate relatively comfortable.

Temperature

The average high-temperature in March, at a still warm 28.8°C (83.8°F), reveals a modest deviation from February's 28°C (82.4°F). In the month of March, the average low-temperature usually rests at a still moderately hot 23.2°C (73.8°F).

Heat index

March's mean heat index is estimated at a hot 34°C (93.2°F). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
