April weather forecast
Kore, Togo

April in Kore continues on a similar pattern as March, dominated by rainy days and high humidity levels. Monthly rainfall peaks at 50mm (1.97"), as the number of sunshine hours per day gradually reduces. Moving towards May, the overall weather pattern sees an exponential increase in precipitation coupled with a decrease in sunshine hours. Visibility is slightly reduced due to increased cloud cover, yet does not significantly hinder outdoor activities. Despite the ensuing wet conditions, temperature levels fairly remain constant, with minimal fluctuations observed.

Temperature

In April, Kore experiences a barely noticeable shift in meteorological conditions, with average high-temperatures moving from 39.2°C (102.6°F) in March to a still fiery hot 38.2°C (100.8°F). In April, a remarkable difference from daytime highs is noted, as Kore records an average temperature of 25.8°C (78.4°F) during the night.

Heat index

Throughout April, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 48°C (118.4°F). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Humidity

In April, the average relative humidity is 48%.

Being careless can result in skin and eye damage. Always take the necessary safety measures. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but keep in mind that not all shade structures provide complete protection. For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized.
