Weather in April
Temperature
The transition into April notes an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.8°C (82°F), revealing a mild distinction from the 27.7°C (81.9°F) in March. During April nights, Cristóbal records an average temperature of 22.3°C (72.1°F).Heat index
The average heat index in April is estimated at a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). With sustained exposure and activity, exhaustion becomes probable, resulting in heat cramps.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
