April's weather displays an average high-temperature of a still sweltering 35°C (95°F), slightly varied from March's 36.2°C (97.2°F). April nights cool down to an average low-temperature of 24.7°C (76.5°F).

Heat index

April's mean heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 51°C (123.8°F). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

In April, the average relative humidity is 71%.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are January through May, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: During April, 7 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a staple for defending the face, eyes, ears, and neck from the Sun.
