Weather in March
Temperature
During March, Pontang observes a subtle ascent to a hot 30.2°C (86.4°F) from February's 29.9°C (85.8°F) in the average high-temperature. Throughout March, Pontang reports a steady low-temperature average of 25.6°C (78.1°F), slightly lower than its daytime counterpart.Heat index
March's heat index is evaluated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
