Weather in March
Temperature
March's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.4°C (81.3°F), demonstrating subtle variation from the preceding month. Omili's temperature lowers to a mean of 21°C (69.8°F) during the nights in March.Heat index
March's mean heat index is computed to be a hot 30°C (86°F). Remaining active during long-lasting exposure could cause fatigue, leading to heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. 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 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, 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 largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.

Adhere to precautions and respect sun safety doctrines. Avoiding sunburn is vital. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
