April weather forecast
LA GUAMA, Honduras

April carries the warmth of March forward, with an appreciable rise in temperatures which coincides with a peak in rainfall, amassing at 80mm (3.15") spread across 19.8 days. Despite frequent downpours, the hours of sunshine maintain an upward trajectory. While these indicators might portray April as unpredictable, uniform pressure levels and a reduction in wind speeds to 6.8km/h (4.2mph) help maintain equilibrium in the La Guama weather. Given these conditions, traversing the city requires a combination of light clothing for the day and rain gear to address the showers that grow in frequency as the month advances.

Temperature

LA GUAMA's warmest month, April, generally records average temperatures ranging from a high of 29°C (84.2°F) to a low of 16.9°C (62.4°F).

Heat index

April's heat index is computed to be a hot 33°C (91.4°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. 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. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.

Note: The maximum daily UV index, 6 in April, converts into the following recommendations:
Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
