Temperature

The arrival of March brings a soft temperature shift, with the average high-temperature nudging from a hot 30.7°C (87.3°F) in February to a very hot 35.4°C (95.7°F). Ramchandrapur documents a substantial shift from daytime warmth, recording an average nighttime temperature of 22°C (71.6°F) in March.

Heat index

In March, the average heat index is computed to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. 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', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. 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 are particularly relevant to 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.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades.
