Zone 9b

The last spring frost here typically falls around 02/17, about 173 days from today. The first fall frost typically arrives around 12/30, about 310 frost-free days later.

The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Umatilla in Zone 9b (25 to 30°F average annual minimum); frost dates are NOAA's 1991-2020 station normal, not this year's forecast.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 9b around Umatilla has about 18 weeks left before the first fall frost — that's the usual window to get a cold frame up if you want to keep harvesting past it.

Why 02/17 isn't a guarantee

02/17 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 01/14 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 03/19 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
