March in Savannah puts you in a workable window — highs reaching 71°F sit right at the bottom of the ideal 60–80°F range, which means comfortable walking but enough morning chill (lows at 53°F) to remind you the season isn't fully turned yet. That 18°F daily swing matters on the scorecard: tee off in a jacket at 7 AM and you'll be playing a different game by the back nine when it's pushing 70°F. Club selection tightens up in the cool morning air, and the ball won't carry as far as it will by May.
The wind is the bigger variable. At 12.9 mph peak, March is Savannah's second-windiest month, and a crosswind on exposed coastal-plain layouts can easily add a stroke or two per side. The 13 precipitation days are worth noting — that's one less dry day than you might hope for — but plan around the possibility of afternoon showers and book accordingly. Build your round around morning tee times and the stats tilt noticeably in your favor.
Book morning tee times, ideally before 10 AM, to reduce your exposure to any precipitation that develops during the day and to play the first few holes before the 18°F daily swing has fully worked against your club selection. With peak winds already at 12.9 mph, earlier rounds also give you the best chance of catching the day before conditions build. See how conditions rate hour by hour on our playability scale.
March runs 6°F warmer than February, which is a meaningful step up from the 65°F February highs that can make early-morning rounds genuinely cold. April pulls ahead by another 5°F and drops two precipitation days, making it statistically the cleaner month to play. The wind barely changes across all three months — just 0.2 mph separates February from March, and April is actually 0.6 mph windier — so don't count on calmer conditions as the season progresses.

March is Savannah's second-windiest month at 12.9 mph peak wind, which crosses into the moderate range above 8 mph and will affect shot shape on open holes. It's playable, but factor in the wind on approach shots and off the tee — courses with tree-lined fairways offer more shelter than the exposed coastal layouts.
March averages 13 precipitation days — toward the drier end of Savannah's annual calendar, ranking as the 3rd-driest month of the year. A morning tee time reduces your exposure to weather delays, giving you a better chance of completing 18 holes without interruption than an afternoon start would.
