March weather forecast
Singapore, Singapore

Transitioning from February to March, weather conditions in Singapore exhibit a slight adjustment. A small rise in the average low temperatures signifies the onset of slightly warmer nights. Consequently, rainfall increases to 186mm (7.32") as the month progresses. Singapore's equatorial climate continues its reputation of minimal temperature fluctuations and persistent humidity. As the residents prepare for the incremental change into warmer months, tourists planning a trip to Singapore in March can expect a comfortable and essentially tropical weather experience.

Temperature

Singapore's shift into March sets the average high-temperature at a still tropical 31.6°C (88.9°F), a figure that deviates only slightly from February's 31.2°C (88.2°F). Singapore observes an average nighttime low-temperature of 23.9°C (75°F) during the month of March.

Heat index

The heat index value during March is computed to be a blisteringly hot 44°C (111.2°F). Careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. With ongoing exertion, heatstroke becomes a possibility.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. 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. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Humidity

In March, the average relative humidity is 83.8%.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index in Singapore are January through May, August through December, with an average maximum UV index of 12. A UV Index of 11, and more, symbolizes an extreme health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: An average maximum UV index of 12 in March leads to these recommendations:
Take all required precautions, as unprotected skin and eyes can burn in minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes. Even on overcast days, apply and frequently reapply a sunscreen with SPF 30 or more, specifically after a swim or outdoor workout. Warning! Sand and water reflections boost the intensity of UV exposure.
