Cutler Bay, FL 33190 Frost Dates

Frost dates for Cutler Bay, FL, ZIP 33190

Zone 11a

Typically, the last spring freeze lands around 01/18, roughly 143 days out. The first fall frost typically arrives around 01/13, about 365 frost-free days later.

Zone 11a (40 to 45°F average annual minimum) comes from the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map; the frost dates above are the 1991-2020 normal at the nearest reporting NOAA station for Cutler Bay, not a forecast for this year.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 11a around Cutler Bay has about 20 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 01/18 isn't a guarantee

01/18 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 02/01 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 12/31 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
