Weather in April

April, like March, is a hot spring month in Kantale, Sri Lanka, with an average temperature varying between 23.5°C (74.3°F) and 34.9°C (94.8°F).

Temperature

In Kantale, the month of April registers the highest temperatures, averaging 34.9°C (94.8°F) at the peak and 23.5°C (74.3°F) at the lowest.

Heat index

April's average heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 52°C (125.6°F). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
