What's the Weather Like in Kerala in March

Temperature

Although it never really gets cold, KeralaIndia, begins to get even warmer in March, when the resort sees high temperatures of up to 33°C during the day. The evenings cool down to a much more bearable 24°C after sunset. Together with April, March is one of the two hottest months of the year in Kerala. In fact, March 10 is historically the hottest day of the whole year. The average daily temperature is a scorching 29°Che same temperature is also recorded in April and May. Temperatures this high can be dangerous if you're unprepared, so try and stay out of the sunshine during the hottest part of the day, in order to avoid sunburn and heatstroke. Drink plenty of water as well.

Sea Temperature

In March, the temperature of the sea is exactly as high as the air temperature, averaging a bath-like 29°C.

Daylight Hours

Just like the previous months and the months to come, March is characterised by an essentially constant length of the dayshis is due to the resort's location near the equator. The length of the days ranges between 11.55 daylight hours in the beginning of the month and 12.12 hours of daylight at the end.

Cloud

The clearer part of the year runs toward its end in the course of March, as the skies tend to get cloudier. Cloud cover increases noticeably throughout the month, from 35% to 44%.

Rainfall

This increasing cloud cover brings with it more rainfall compared to January and February. There is now a total amount of rainfall of 40mm, which is spread out over 5 days with rainfall. March is, however, still the third driest month of the year. The probability that rainfall will be observed on any given day increases dramatically in the course of March, though. March 1 is the driest day of the month with a chance of rainfall of 14%; March 31 is the wettest day with a 33% chance that it will rain.

The most common type of precipitation, by far, is thunderstorms. They occur on no less than 75% of the days with rainfall. Other possible, but far less likely, types of rainfall are moderate rain, drizzle and light rain, respectively falling on 15%, 7% and 3% of the rainy days.

Sunshine

Also because of the cloudier skies, the amount of sunshine will be less, especially compared with the sunny winter months. March, however, has 8 hours of sunshine per day on average, only one hour fewer than February and the same number as in April. March is a pretty sunny month for a tropical place like Kerala.
