Temperature

The month of April, characterized by an average high of 32°C (89.6°F) and a low of 20.1°C (68.2°F), is recognized as the warmest.

Heat index

During April, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 63%, April is the least humid month.

Note: An average maximum UV index of 6 in April leads to these recommendations:
Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
