Weather in April
Temperature
Kakoumana experiences its highest temperatures in April, with an average peak of 39.1°C (102.4°F) and a low of 26.7°C (80.1°F).Heat index
The heat index value during April is calculated to be a burning hot 46°C (114.8°F). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Sunshine

March through May, with an average maximum UV index of 8, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 8 to 10 represents a very high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: A daily high UV index of 8 in April leads to these guidelines:
Always be cautious. Skin and eyes can be affected swiftly without protection. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Arm yourself against UV rays' harm with protective apparel and UV-filtering shades.
