By this month, the weather seems to have caught the rhythm of tropical consistency, characterized by warm days and cool evenings. Not to be missed, winds do veer off their strength slightly with a low mark of 8.9km/h (5.5mph), but that does not spoil the comfort of March. Frequent rainfall continues to lend the greens a luscious appeal. Thus, March marks a perfect confluence of steady winds, stable pressure, and delightful temperatures.

Temperature

March brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31°C (87.8°F), showing a slight difference from February's 30.1°C (86.2°F). In Outram Park, the average temperature during the nights of March drops to a warm 25.3°C (77.5°F).

Heat index

The heat index value for March is computed to be a scorching 40°C (104°F). Ensure extra safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Humidity

In March, the average relative humidity is 78%.
