Woodbine, NJ 08327 Frost Dates

Woodbine, NJ: when does the frost end?

Zone 7b

The last spring frost here typically falls around 04/24, about 239 days from today. Fall's first freeze usually shows up around 10/22, roughly 181 days after the last spring frost.

Woodbine sits in USDA Zone 7b (5 to 10°F average annual minimum). The dates above are NOAA's 1991-2020 normal at the nearest reporting station, a 30-year average, not a forecast.

Stretching the season past the first frost

With roughly 8 weeks until Woodbine's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.

Why 04/24 isn't a guarantee

04/24 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 04/05 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 05/18 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.

Woodbine against the rest of the dataset

At roughly 181 frost-free days, Woodbine places 24,565 of 40,283 ZIP codes in this dataset. Within NJ, it ranks 737 of 906.
