April weather forecast
Colombia

April marks a distinct shift in Colombia's weather patterns as the wet season establishes its presence across the country. The month sees a further rise in temperature, humidity, and precipitation levels, particularly in certain regions.

In Bogota, the capital situated in the Andean region, temperatures continue to rise slightly, with averages oscillating between 17.5°C (63.5°F) and 24.7°C (76.5°F). Despite the increase, these temperatures are still relatively cool compared to the warmer lowland regions due to Bogota's high altitude.

In the lowland regions, including the Guajira Peninsula in the north, the heat escalates further with temperatures peaking at 32°C (89.6°F). Similarly, the Amazon region witnesses high temperatures, with the mercury ranging from 25.5°C (77.9°F) to a sweltering 32.2°C (90°F). The heat experienced in these areas in April exceeds that of the previous month, indicating a progression towards the hotter part of the year.

Precipitation in April significantly increases across the country, signalling the full arrival of the rainy season. Cities like Quibdo, already known for high rainfall, see even greater precipitation during this month, often exceeding 700mm (27.56"). This considerable rise is indicative of the shift from the relatively drier period in March.

Despite the higher precipitation levels, the Pacific Coast and the Caribbean Sea maintain their warm water temperatures, ranging between 26.1°C (79°F) and 28.9°C (84°F). However, the increased rainfall could potentially impact the suitability of these regions for water-related activities.
