Frost dates for Corn, OK, ZIP 73024

Zone 7b

The last spring frost here typically falls around 04/06, about 221 days from today. The first fall frost typically arrives around 11/03, about 210 frost-free days later.

Zone 7b (5 to 10°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 Corn, not a forecast for this year.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 7b around Corn has about 10 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 04/06 isn't a guarantee

04/06 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 03/20 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 04/23 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
