Weather in March

The first month of the spring, March, is still a warm month in Glan, Philippines, with an average temperature fluctuating between 29.5°C (85.1°F) and 23.8°C (74.8°F).

Temperature

The advent of March sees the average high-temperature at a still moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F), subtly shifted from February's 29.1°C (84.4°F). An average minimum temperature of 23.8°C (74.8°F) marks the month of March in Glan, Philippines.

Heat index

March's heat index is computed to be a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Humidity

February and March, with an average relative humidity of 77%, are the least humid months.

Rainfall

In Glan, during March, the rain falls for 23.1 days and regularly aggregates up to 86mm (3.39") of precipitation. In Glan, during the entire year, the rain falls for 306.6 days and collects up to 1410mm (55.51") of precipitation.

Sea temperature

UV index

The months with the highest UV index in Glan are January through June, August through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: In March, the average maximum UV index of 7 translates into the following recommendations:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly. Note! The Sun's UV radiation gets intensified with the reflection from sand and water.
