Weather in March
Temperature
Lakka signifies an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31°C (87.8°F) in March, closely mirroring the 31.3°C (88.3°F) of February. During March, the temperature in Lakka tends to dip to an average of 24.6°C (76.3°F) at night.Heat index
In March, the heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 39°C (102.2°F). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
