Weather in March
Temperature
March's climate shows a minor adjustment in average high-temperatures to a still tropical 31°C (87.8°F) from February's 30.6°C (87.1°F). In Ambakireny, the nighttime temperature averages to a pleasant 22.7°C (72.9°F) during March.Heat index
For most parts of March, the heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

In March, the rain falls for 26.3 days. Throughout March, 178mm (7.01") of precipitation is accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 163.5 rainfall days, and 1163mm (45.79") of precipitation is accumulated.Daylight

Sunshine

February, March, August through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The UV index of 7 during March translates into the following guidance:
Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. UV radiation from the sun is at its strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure during these hours. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
