Temperature

In March, Tuparetama experiences a barely noticeable shift in meteorological conditions, with average high-temperatures moving from 32.9°C (91.2°F) in February to a still hot 32.7°C (90.9°F). March's average low-temperature reading settles at an agreeable 21.9°C (71.4°F).

Heat index

The heat index value for March is computed to be a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light 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 'feels like', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. 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.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

The average relative humidity in March is 67%.

Endorse precautions and be consistent with sun safety guidelines. Preventing sunburn is paramount. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
