Casa, AR 72025 Frost Dates

Casa, AR: when does the frost end?

Zone 8a

The last spring frost here typically falls around 03/22, about 206 days from today. Fall's first freeze usually shows up around 11/11, roughly 233 days after the last spring frost.

Casa sits in USDA Zone 8a (10 to 15°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 11 weeks until Casa's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.

How much risk comes with planting early here

03/22 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 03/02 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 04/07 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.
