Weather in April
Temperature
April is Vattappalai's warmest month, registering average high temperatures of 30.4°C (86.7°F) and lows of 28.1°C (82.6°F).Heat index
April's mean heat index is estimated at a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. 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 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. 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 essentially critical for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When the body's heat gain surpasses its removal capacity, body temperature starts to climb, leading to potential heat-related ailments.
