Weather in March
Temperature
With the onset of March, the average high-temperature stands at a still moderately hot 27.6°C (81.7°F), closely aligned with February's 27.2°C (81°F). An average nighttime temperature of 18.8°C (65.8°F) is witnessed throughout March.Heat index
March's average heat index is estimated at a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
