Climate Guides

Climate Insight: Keiser, AR

An annual average temperature of 62°F, ranging from a mean daily high of 71°F to a mean daily low of 52°F is what the NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals report for Keiser, Arkansas. July is typically the warmest month of the year, while January is the coldest. That baseline comes from station USC00033821 and thirty years of averaging, so it reflects a typical month rather than any one year's swings.

Precipitation patterns matter as much as temperature for anyone planning to live, garden, or travel here. Keiser receives roughly 52.2 inches of precipitation each year, with 1.8 inches typically falling as snow. The frost-free season averages 228 days, which directly shapes the planting calendar and growing potential for the area, with the last spring freeze near March 23 and the first fall freeze near November 6. For energy use, 3,357 heating degree days and 2,133 cooling degree days tell the story of how often furnaces and air conditioners run during a normal year.

On PlainClimate's composite comfort index, Keiser scores 83/100 (Excellent), a blended measure that weighs temperature mildness, precipitation moderation, and extreme-weather frequency against one another. Shoulder seasons bring the mildest highs and lows in the monthly tables above, summer brings July-driven heat, and winter brings January-driven cold - use that rhythm for planning. These figures are thirty-year averages rather than forecasts, so a specific year may still run warmer, cooler, wetter, or drier than what's shown.
