Weather in April

April is a month of continued transition in Arkansas, as winter recedes and the full beauty of spring emerges. In the northern and western highlands, including the Ozarks and Ouachita Mountains, temperatures typically range from 70°F (21.1°C) for highs to 49°F (9.4°C) for lows. Southern regions experience similar temperature ranges but tend to be slightly warmer.

Rainfall becomes more widespread in April, especially in the northern part of the state, where spring brings the most precipitation. Showers are common, and the weather can be variable, shifting between sunny, clear days and periods of rain.

While the threat of frost diminishes significantly in April, particularly in the southern regions, it is not entirely ruled out in the higher elevations of the northwest. The warming temperatures encourage the growth of flora, and the state's landscapes become increasingly lush and colorful.

Compared to the fluctuating weather patterns of March, April provides a more consistent taste of spring. It serves as a bridge between the moderate temperatures of March and the warmer, more humid conditions that begin to appear in May. April's weather patterns underscore Arkansas's reputation as the Natural State, with the climate contributing to the vibrant growth and renewal that define this time of year.
