April weather forecast
Barrera Arriba, Venezuela

April, like March, in Barrera Arriba, Venezuela, is a moderately hot spring month, with an average temperature varying between 21.9°C (71.4°F) and 29.4°C (84.9°F).

Temperature

The advent of April observes an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 29.4°C (84.9°F), nearly identical to March's 30°C (86°F). Throughout the April nights, Barrera Arriba encounters a low-temperature of 21.9°C (71.4°F).

Heat index

April's average heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in April is 76%.

UV index

March and April, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.
Note: The maximum UV index of 7 during April leads to these instructions:
Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
