The first month of the spring,
March, is a sweltering month in
Phrae,
Thailand, with temperature in the range of an average low of 21.2°C (70.2°F) and an average high of 36.3°C (97.3°F).
Temperature
The advent of March presents an average high-temperature of a sweltering 36.3°C (97.3°F), maintaining a close correlation with the preceding month. From the height of daytime heat, the temperature recedes to an average of 21.2°C (70.2°F) at night during March.
Heat index
In March, the average heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 50°C (122°F).
Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
Humidity
With an average relative humidity of 62%, March is the least humid month.
