Temperature

The onset of April introduces a subtle rise in the average high-temperature, nudging from a moderately hot 75.6°F (24.2°C) in March to a still warm 81.7°F (27.6°C). The average low-temperature, in April, is an enjoyable 66.4°F (19.1°C).

Heat index

April's mean heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). If one persists in activity during exposure, it could induce weariness and subsequently, heat cramps.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
