Temperature

The advent of April in Adzope brings an average high-temperature of a still very hot 35.8°C (96.4°F), almost identical to the preceding month. April, marked by an average low-temperature of 23°C (73.4°F), indicates a large temperature drop from the daytime peak.

Heat index

For most parts of April, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 57°C (134.6°F). Warning: These weather conditions are judged to be tremendously perilous, and heatstroke is imminent.
Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

Humidity

In April, the average relative humidity is 76%.

UV index

Note: In April, the maximum UV index of 7 suggests this advice:
Use protective steps and abide by sun safety guidelines. Safeguarding against skin and eye harm is necessary. The Sun's UV radiation is at its strongest between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Minimize direct exposure to the sun during this period. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
