Temperature

Entering March, the average high-temperature is recorded at a still moderately hot 28.9°C (84°F), exhibiting a minimal shift from February's 29.8°C (85.6°F). Ngerengere, during the month of March, experiences an average low-temperature of 20.3°C (68.5°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in March is computed to be a very hot 35°C (95°F). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. 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 essentially critical for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

Humidity

In March, the average relative humidity is 84%.

Rainfall

The month with the most rainfall is March, when the rain falls for 29.3 days and typically aggregates up to 256mm (10.08") of precipitation.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are January through March, May through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: An average maximum UV index of 6 in March leads to these recommendations:
Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades.
