The first month of the pre-monsoon summer, March, is still a hot month in Jigani, India, with an average temperature ranging between min 19.8°C (67.6°F) and max 33°C (91.4°F).

The transition into March marks the average high-temperature at a still tropical 33°C (91.4°F), differing minimally from February's 30.5°C (86.9°F). A steep decline to a comfortable 19.8°C (67.6°F) characterizes the March nights.

Heat index

In March, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Humidity

March and April, with an average relative humidity of 47%, are the least humid months.

Rainfall

In Jigani, in March, during 5.8 rainfall days, 11mm (0.43") of precipitation is typically accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 152.1 rainfall days, and 604mm (23.78") of precipitation is accumulated.

Sunshine

In March, the average sunshine is 9.7h.

UV index

March through June, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: A daily high UV index of 7 in March leads to these guidelines:
Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. 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. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation.
