No jacket was required. Only a sweater. Sometimes it is colder though. I was pretty happy with Madrid weather during a November visit. No jacket was required. Only a sweater.

As for April, that's a tricky one. This year I sunbathed in the Casa de Campo. But looking at my electricity bill, I can see I also had the heating on. The chart linked to above suggests between 6º and 16º is normal. Btw, the most accurate weather site is (appropriately enough) accuweather.com, I find. You can get a forecast for up to two weeks.

The main characteristic of the weather in Madrid for me is dryness. It's unlike anything I've ever experienced before--New York is quite humid. The sun, I swear, is also hotter here than in the States, even in winter.
