Temperature

The transition from February to March sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still moderately hot 27.4°C (81.3°F), from a not significantly different 27.9°C (82.2°F). An average low-temperature of 21°C (69.8°F) is expected during March.

Heat index

The heat index in March is calculated to be a tropical 30°C (86°F). Long-standing exposure and activity could induce a feeling of tiredness and lead to heat cramps.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially vital 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.

The average relative humidity in March is 76%.
