April, like March, is another tropical spring month in Eppawala, Sri Lanka, with temperature in the range of an average high of 34.3°C (93.7°F) and an average low of 24.2°C (75.6°F).

Temperature

March and April, when the average high-temperature reaches 34.3°C (93.7°F), are the warmest months.

Heat index

During April, the heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 51°C (123.8°F). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
