Uniontown, KS 66779 Frost Dates

Frost dates for Uniontown, KS, ZIP 66779

Zone 7a

Typically, the last spring freeze lands around 04/05, roughly 220 days out. The first fall frost typically arrives around 10/28, about 204 frost-free days later.

Zone 7a (0 to 5°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 Uniontown, not a forecast for this year.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 7a around Uniontown has about 9 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 04/05 isn't a guarantee

04/05 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 03/21 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 04/22 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
