Weather in March
Temperature
The advent of March sees an average high temperature of a still tropical 32.3°C (90.1°F), matching the February's conditions. Nightly temperatures drop to an average low of 27°C (80.6°F) in March.Heat index
In March, the average heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 43°C (109.4°F). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: During March, 7 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Stand by precautions and apply sun safety measures. Evading sunburn is of great importance. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. Sun protection is enhanced with clothing that boasts a tight weave yet offers a loose fit.
