Heat index

Throughout March, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in March is 75%.
