March weather forecast
Malibcong, Philippines

March, the first month of the spring in Malibcong, is a tropical month, with an average temperature varying between 30.8°C (87.4°F) and 21°C (69.8°F).

Temperature

March registers an average high-temperature of a hot 30.8°C (87.4°F), slightly varied from February's 29.3°C (84.7°F). In Malibcong, an average nighttime temperature of 21°C (69.8°F) is expected during March.

Heat index

For most parts of March, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Undertake additional safety actions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Persistent activity may induce heatstroke.
It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 70%, March is the least humid month.

Rainfall

In March, the rain falls for 13.9 days. Throughout March, 16mm (0.63") of precipitation is accumulated. In Malibcong, during the entire year, the rain falls for 239.3 days and collects up to 1360mm (53.54") of precipitation.

UV index

March through June, September and October, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: The daily maximum UV index of 7 in March interprets into the following advice:
Enforce precautions and stick to sun safety measures. Preservation from skin and eye damage is essential. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
