Weather in March
Temperature
March and April, with an average high-temperature of 34.3°C (93.7°F), are the warmest months.Heat index
Throughout March, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
