Weather in March
Temperature
The onset of March brings with it an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.2°C (81°F), showing a negligible variation from the month before. Kabompo experiences an average nighttime temperature of 17.8°C (64°F) in the month of March.Heat index
March's mean heat index is estimated at a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). Continued exposure and engagement in activity might trigger tiredness and subsequently heat cramps.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. 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 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.

The average daily maximum UV index in March is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: A daily maximum UV index of 6 in March translates into the following instructions:
Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
