Show all 13 places for March

Places are ranked by the same comfort rule as the Best time of year card: the typical daytime high (most comfortable at 20 to 28°C) and the typical rainfall (most comfortable under 1 mm a day), averaged over 2001–2020. A place is listed only when its month is comfortable (a comfort of 70 or more, about a mild day with little rain). It is a short list of well-known places, not every place; crowds, prices, humidity and festivals are not included, and a mountain or coast can differ from its half-degree grid cell. Not a forecast. A place under a Level 3 or 4 travel advisory is never listed.
