The still winds become more noticeable, with their strength slightly reduced in comparison to February. No significant changes in sunlight hours can be detected.

Temperature

The introduction of March notes a subtle temperature variation to a still tropical 31.5°C (88.7°F) from February's 31.3°C (88.3°F). Sukang, in the month of March, anticipates a consistent average low-temperature of 22.6°C (72.7°F).

Heat index

March's mean heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 44°C (111.2°F). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. 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 particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. 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. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in March is 84%.

UV index

February through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The UV index of 7 in March translates into these instructions:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
