Weather in April
Temperature
Masaka transitions into April recording an average high-temperature of a still very hot 36.8°C (98.2°F), closely aligning with the preceding month's temperature. In the month of April, Masaka's average low-temperature falls to a moderately hot 25.3°C (77.5°F).Heat index
April's mean heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 48°C (118.4°F). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
