Weather in April
Temperature
The ushering in of April brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 31.1°C (88°F), closely mirroring the 31.3°C (88.3°F) of March. With a barely noticeable fluctuation in temperature, Kiangwe reaches an average low of 26.7°C (80.1°F) during the April nights.Heat index
April's mean heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 40°C (104°F). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.

Guard oneself from overexposure. Defence against sun injury is vital. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
