April weather forecast
Oyo, Nigeria

April carries forward the established upbeat rhythm of rainfall in Oyo, bearing twice the volume of precipitation as March. Similar weather conditions persist as in the previous month, but the rainfall amplifies to 78mm (3.07"), indicating a significant elevation in moisture content. The light wind movements and overcast skies contribute to the pleasant temperature range. The city witnesses a gentle reduction in the number of sunshine hours. All these factors combined underscore April's warm yet rainy disposition.

Temperature

The average high-temperature in Oyo, Nigeria, is a still sweltering 35.3°C (95.5°F) in April, hardly different from the 36.8°C (98.2°F) recorded in March. In April, the nighttime temperature in Oyo, Nigeria, lowers to an average of 24.3°C (75.7°F).

Heat index

Throughout April, the heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 51°C (123.8°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. 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.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
