The start of April brings a subtle shift in the average high-temperature, edging up from March's sweltering 35.5°C (95.9°F) to a still torrid 38.8°C (101.8°F). The month of April sees a significant daily temperature drop, recording an average low-temperature of 26.3°C (79.3°F).

Heat index

Throughout April, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 56°C (132.8°F). Warning: These weather conditions are deemed overly hazardous, with near heatstroke.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for 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.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
