Weather in March
Temperature
Mihiripenna's highest average temperatures are recorded in March and April, reaching a high of 30.3°C (86.5°F).Heat index
The heat index value during March is estimated at a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
