Temperature

The shift into March brings a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a hot 31°C (87.8°F) in February to a very hot 35.7°C (96.3°F). Bhandardaha experiences a consistent, yet significant, drop from daily highs to a low-temperature of 22.2°C (72°F) throughout March.

Heat index

In March, the heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 42°C (107.6°F). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Humidity

In March, the average relative humidity is 48%.

Note: In March, the maximum UV index of 8 transforms into these recommendations:
Take extra precautions. Fair-skinned individuals may get burned in less than 10 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
