The arrival of April sees a recorded average high-temperature of a still tropical 33.3°C (91.9°F), showing little divergence from the previous month's conditions. During the April nights, an average temperature of 24.7°C (76.5°F) is observed.

Heat index

For April, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is particularly strong, noting that parasols or canopies may not offer total sun protection. Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
