FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — If going to the park with your children or walking your dog at a certain time of the day is routine for you, be ready to notice a shift in the weather.
Every day in March has had above-average temperatures.
On Sunday, the Central Valley experienced a day 13 degrees above normal.
It’s a warming trend that is not expected to change any time soon.
“We could see not only record highs not only for the daily temperature, but potentially the monthly temperature,” says Stephen McCoy with the National Weather Service.
According to the National Weather Service, we typically experience warmer days at the end of March and early April, not in the second week of March.
Dr. Praveen Buddiga says sudden shifts in the forecast also means sudden shifts to the body.
“Our body has a significant challenge to basically acclimatize or adapt to the change in temperature from cold to hot,” he said.
Buddiga suggests you pay attention to any changes you might feel this month, including headaches, migraines, fatigue or brain fog.
He says the symptoms should not last for longer than 48 hours but is normal this time of year.
Dr. Buddiga says the biggest piece of advice is to stay hydrated and make the adjustments necessary for your well-being.
“Definitely try and find a good, comfortable temperature,” he said.
Dr. Budigga reminds parents to dress their children appropriately for the warmer afternoons and to remind little ones to drink plenty of water as well.
