March weather forecast
Seguela, Ivory Coast

As one might guess, March sees Seguela in the full swing of its wet season. Whilst the 73% relative humidity makes the average high temperatures feel hotter, the 125mm (4.92") of rainfall acts as a reliever. The rain falls over 25 days of the month, characterizing March as one of the wetter months. The reduction in the average sunshine hours per day to 8.9 hours is also an underscored feature. The drop in visibility to 8km (5mi) hints at the prevalence of misty and overcast days.

Heat index

The heat index value for March is estimated at a life-threatening hot 46°C (114.8°F). Take heed: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Heatstroke is a potential outcome of continuous activity.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
