April weather forecast
Kakambona, Solomon Islands

April in Kakambona, Solomon Islands carries a modest hike in temperature and sunlight hours from the previous month, enabling brighter and warmer atmospheric conditions. Interestingly, while the temperature rises, the amount of rainfall reduces to 211mm (8.31"), breaking the trend of rising dampness. Also, the wind loses its speed, thereby lowering the gustiness. Dealing with fewer rain days and a higher UV index, April provides a window of warmer and sunnier weather condition amidst the typically wet and humid climate of Kakambona.

Temperature

Kakambona's entry into April measures an average high-temperature of a still warm 29°C (84.2°F), closely parallel to the preceding month. April nights in Kakambona are marked by an average low-temperature of 23.9°C (75°F).

Heat index

During April, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Use additional protective measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible outcomes. Continuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

Humidity

January, March and April, with an average relative humidity of 85%, are the most humid months.

Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. Stay out of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide complete protection. In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation.
