Belleview, FL: when does the frost end?

Zone 9b

Around 01/26 is the usual last spring frost, about 151 days away. Fall's first freeze usually shows up around 01/09, roughly 346 days after the last spring frost.

Belleview sits in USDA Zone 9b (25 to 30°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 19 weeks until Belleview's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.

Why 01/26 isn't a guarantee

01/26 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 02/21 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 12/31 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.

About 346 days separate Belleview's last and first frost, putting it 2,444 of 40,283 ZIP codes nationally. Within FL, it ranks 1,034 of 1,609.
