A minimal variation is noted in Pixvae's average high-temperature at the onset of April, reaching a still hot 34°C (93.2°F) from March's 34.6°C (94.3°F). In Pixvae, the average low-temperature during the month of April is a warm 23.7°C (74.7°F).

Heat index

In April, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke can follow with prolonged activity.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are January through June and September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.
Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in April translates into the following recommendations:
Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
