The number of rainy days goes down while the relative humidity begins to decline. Sunlight hours start to increase indicating a reduction in cloud cover and providing more clear skies. Temperatures continue to hold steady, and the winds remain moderate, offering occasional respite from the warm weather. This trend hints towards the incoming dryer months.

Temperature

Stepping into April, Vemasse records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.3°C (84.7°F), almost consistent with March. In the month of April, the temperature generally rests at an average low of 23.2°C (73.8°F).

Heat index

The heat index in April is calculated to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

UV index

April through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: The average daily UV index of 6 in April transforms into the following instructions:
Eschew overexposure. Those with light skin may suffer burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Remember that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
