April weather forecast
Anlong Veng, Cambodia

April rolls in with an assertive warmth, distinct from the transitioning weather of March. This uptick in heat impacts visibility, causing it to drop slightly. Although April displays a larger rainfall volume, the additional moisture does not suppress the escalating temperatures, reaching up to 35.5°C (95.9°F). As this weather pattern precedes May's instances of comparatively rampant rain showers, outdoor activities are better enjoyed during this window.

Temperature

A minimal variation is noted in Anlong Veng's average high-temperature at the onset of April, reaching a still fiery hot 35.5°C (95.9°F) from March's 35.7°C (96.3°F). Throughout April, the nighttime temperature averages to a moderately hot 26.5°C (79.7°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during April is evaluated at a blazing hot 49°C (120.2°F). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
