April is warm and wet in Missouri with comfortable weather and partly cloudy skies. The average high temperatures are in the wonderfully warm 62°F (16.7°C) to 70°F (21.1°C) range, while nights are mild in the 39°F (3.9°C) to 48°F (8.9°C) statewide. Lake Ozark in central Missouri, with its calm waters and plenty of recreational activities, registers pleasant temperatures between 44°F (6.7°C) to 68°F (20°C). April records 4" (102mm) to 6" (152mm) of rainfall in the middle of the spring season with warm sunshine that lasts for a daily 7 to 8 hours. Lakes, streams, and rivers roar with freshwater as beautiful wildflowers bloom all over the landscape. Wind speeds seldom exceed 10 to 15mph (24.1km/h) during the warm but humid days of spring. Pack a light sweater for the evening and a rain jacket or umbrella for outdoors during the day. Expect thunderstorm activity to be on the rise during spring and keep an eye on the weather for storms. April is a good time for a Missouri trip for visitors who do not mind a little rain.
