March weather forecast
Tavaí, Paraguay

Tavaí, Paraguay, witnesses a transition from the scorching summer to the moderate March temperatures. Consequently, the climate becomes more pleasant amid reduced temperature and lower humidity levels. Rainfall dwindles, indicating a drier atmosphere, as rainfall diminution continues to 45mm (1.77") in this month. The alteration in weather parameters has no substantial effect on the sunshine hours or UV index. Thereby, travel and outdoor activities can persist with minor disruptions.

Temperature

Tavaí's shift from February to March is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.9°C (87.6°F), a slight deviation from 32.8°C (91°F). Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 19.1°C (66.4°F) in March.

Heat index

The heat index in March is calculated to be a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. 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. 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 extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Note: A maximum UV index of 6 in March translates into the following recommendations:
Resist extreme sun exposure. Guarding against solar damage is essential. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
