March weather forecast
Cañaveral, Panama

March, the first month of the spring in Cañaveral, is also a hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 32°C (89.6°F) and an average low of 22.9°C (73.2°F).

Temperature

The transition from February to March sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still tropical 32°C (89.6°F), from a not significantly different 31.3°C (88.3°F). Cañaveral experiences an average nighttime temperature of 22.9°C (73.2°F) in the month of March.

Heat index

In March, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 72%, March is the least humid month in Cañaveral.

Rainfall

In Cañaveral, in March, it is raining for 8.1 days, with typically 8mm (0.31") of accumulated precipitation. Throughout the year, in Cañaveral, there are 247.4 rainfall days, and 1423mm (56.02") of precipitation is accumulated.

Sunshine

The average sunshine in March is 9h.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index in Cañaveral are January through June, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: In March, the maximum UV index of 7 suggests these recommendations:
Ward off overexposure. Defence against solar harm is crucial. 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. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
