Weather in March
Temperature
Mendewa witnesses its peak temperatures during February and March, when the average high-temperature reaches 98.2°F.Heat index
For most parts of March, the heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 132.8°F. Warning: These weather conditions are treated as highly risky, with approaching heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
