April, like March, is another hot autumn month in Yumbi, Democratic Republic of Congo, with temperature in the range of an average high of 31.8°C (89.2°F) and an average low of 23°C (73.4°F).

The transition into April shows a subtle variation to a still tropical 31.8°C (89.2°F) from March's 32.6°C (90.7°F) in the average high-temperature. Throughout April, Yumbi anticipates an average low-temperature of 23°C (73.4°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in April is estimated at a scorching 42°C (107.6°F). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

In April, the average relative humidity is 76%.
