March weather forecast
Sonpu, Myanmar

March, the first month of the spring in Sonpu, is a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 34.1°C (93.4°F) and 17.3°C (63.1°F).

Temperature

March's onset brings a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 29.2°C (84.6°F) in February to a hot 34.1°C (93.4°F). The March nights bear witness to a significant drop from the daytime highs, settling at an average temperature of 17.3°C (63.1°F).

Heat index

March's average heat index is appraised at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation.
