April brings a significant departure from
Khasab's cooler climate experienced in the first quarter of the year. The most exceptional feature of this month is the substantial dip in precipitation levels to 9mm (0.35"). This transition from wetter to drier months accompanies the increase in temperatures. This period exemplifies Khasab's characteristic dry, hot climate, while enlarged daylight exposure promotes tourism and outdoor activities. April's climatic conditions set the stage for the impending summer season.
Temperature
Khasab's weather shows a temperature rise with the arrival of April, moving from a moderately hot 28°C (82.4°F) in
March to a hot 33.5°C (92.3°F). During the month of April, Khasab experiences a steady low-temperature average of 23.9°C (75°F).
Heat index
In April, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.

With an average relative humidity of 53%, April is the least humid month in Khasab.
Rainfall
During April, Khasab regularly aggregates up to 9mm (0.35") of precipitation. During the entire year, Khasab aggregates up to 187mm (7.36") of precipitation.
