April weather forecast
Mantua, Cuba

April, like March, in Mantua, Cuba, is another warm spring month, with an average temperature varying between 22.9°C (73.2°F) and 29.8°C (85.6°F).

Temperature

The beginning of April records an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.8°C (85.6°F), almost echoing the conditions of the previous month. During April, Mantua experiences a consistent low-temperature average of 22.9°C (73.2°F).

Heat index

In April, the heat index is appraised at a very hot 35°C (95°F). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. 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 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Humidity

March and April, with an average relative humidity of 72%, are the least humid months.

Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. It's wise to wear UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses when the sun shines brightly.
