Transitioning into the season, March in Adjumani sees temperatures somewhat similar to February, ranging from a maximum of 35.1°C (95.2°F) during the day to a minimum of 23.1°C (73.6°F) at night. Showcasing a significant leap in rainfall with 27mm (1.06") falling in the month, the landscape begins to hydrate. The atmospheric pressure is slightly higher, at 1009mb, compared to previous months. Wind speed decreases a bit, providing slight relief from the humidity. As the cloudiness increases, the number of sunshine hours slightly reduces, painting a significantly different picture of the atmosphere compared to the initial months of the year.

Temperature

The advent of March sees the average high-temperature at a still very hot 35.1°C (95.2°F), subtly shifted from February's 36.6°C (97.9°F). Adjumani reports a steady low-temperature average of 23.1°C (73.6°F) throughout March, revealing a large deviation from the daytime high.

Heat index

The heat index value during March is calculated to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
