Weather in April

April, like March, is another tropical spring month in Frambo, Ivory Coast, with an average temperature fluctuating between 31.4°C (88.5°F) and 25.9°C (78.6°F).

Temperature

The advent of April sees the average high-temperature at a still hot 31.4°C (88.5°F), subtly shifted from March's 31.2°C (88.2°F). In Frambo, the average low-temperature during the month of April is a warm 25.9°C (78.6°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during April is calculated to be a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. 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. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. 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. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Humidity

In April, the average relative humidity is 79%.

Rainfall

In Frambo, in April, during 22.5 rainfall days, 70mm (2.76") of precipitation is typically accumulated. Throughout the year, in Frambo, there are 291.5 rainfall days, and 1061mm (41.77") of precipitation is accumulated.

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 health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.
Note: In April, a daily UV index of 7 turns into the following recommendations:
Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
