April weather forecast
Mayoko, Congo

April sheds a light on minor shifts in Mayoko's weather, chiefly following the usual patterns from March. The day length prevails at about 12.1h, and the atmospheric pressure settles at a steady rate. A crucial deviation is observed in a slightly higher amount of rainfall; it reaches 132mm (5.2"), marking another elevation from the rain amounts experienced in March. Hence, April does not deviate significantly from the recurrent weather script of Mayoko, Congo: Stable temperatures, high humidity, and scattered showers.

Temperature

With April's advent, Mayoko sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 31.2°C (88.2°F), subtly shifted from March's 32°C (89.6°F). Throughout April, a steady low-temperature average of 21.6°C (70.9°F) is noted.

Heat index

April's average heat index is appraised at a scorching 43°C (109.4°F). Stay on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Ongoing effort can cause heatstroke.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
