March in Pohnpei — middling scores, decent value

At 23°C (73°F) this is comfortable city weather in March, with sightseeing easiest before lunch and after the afternoon peak.

This is the year's wettest stretch at 368 mm, but with about 25 days with 6+ hours of sunshine it is not a total loss; an indoor fallback covers the risk.
