March weather forecast
Adeta, Togo

As spring arrives, March brings with it a maturing weather cycle. The heat creeps up to a high of 36.7°C (98.1°F), aligning with the gradual rise in temperature experienced from January to February. Days grow longer, and there is ample daylight to enjoy the city's outdoor atmosphere. Consequently, these warmer, longer days create conditions conducive to higher humidity and increased rainfall. Despite the rain, the level of sunshine is considerable.

Temperature

With the onset of March, a modest change to a still very hot 36.7°C (98.1°F) from February's 36.9°C (98.4°F) is noted in high-temperature. Adeta's average low-temperature for the month of March denotes a significant decline from the daily high, recording at a warm 24°C (75.2°F).

Heat index

In March, the average heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 50°C (122°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
