April weather forecast
Kuala Tahan, Malaysia

Kuala Tahan in April witnesses a notable surge in various parameters. Rainfall increases substantially to 176mm, indicating a wetter month when compared to March. While this increase in rainfall leads to more humidity, it does not interfere with the warmth of the city. Sunshine hours remain unaffected by the amplified rainfall, and hence outdoor activities remain largely feasible. Brief showers interspersed with sunshine make for a unique weather pattern for this month.

Temperature

The onset of April marks an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32°C, hardly differing from March's 31.7°C. Throughout April, Kuala Tahan records an average temperature of 21.3°C at night.

Heat index

The heat index value during April is computed to be a life-threatening hot 46°C. Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. 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 disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
