Weather in April
Temperature
April's beginning signals an average high-temperature of a warm 28.3°C (82.9°F), barely different from March's 30°C (86°F). An average low-temperature of 17.9°C (64.2°F) is observed during the April nights.Heat index
During April, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
