Temperature

Welcoming March, Mbieri notes an average high-temperature of a still fiery hot 35.1°C (95.2°F), nearly consistent with February's 36°C (96.8°F). March nights are marked by an average temperature drop to a warm 25°C (77°F).

Heat index

For March, the heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 51°C (123.8°F). Remain cautious: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are foreseeable. Ongoing activity may precipitate heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it 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. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

In March, the average relative humidity is 71%.

Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. 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. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
