Weather in March
Temperature
Namunukula's average high-temperature in March sits at a still moderately hot 27.5°C (81.5°F), showing little difference from the previous month. During March, Namunukula observes a consistent average nighttime temperature of 16.2°C (61.2°F).Heat index
In March, the average heat index is appraised at a hot 31°C (87.8°F). Long-standing exposure and activity could induce a feeling of tiredness and lead to heat cramps.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.

Avoid overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can burn in under 20 minutes.
