Weather in March

The commencement of March introduces an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.5°C (81.5°F), closely mirroring the preceding month. During March, Hakgala's temperature falls to a steady low-temperature average of 16.2°C (61.2°F).Heat index
For most parts of March, the heat index is evaluated at a hot 31°C (87.8°F). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. 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 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. 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.
