Webb City, OK 74652 Frost Dates

When can you plant in Webb City, OK?

Zone 7a

The last spring frost here typically falls around 04/06, about 221 days from today. The first fall frost typically arrives around 10/29, 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 Webb City, not a forecast for this year.

What to do before the first frost

About 9 weeks of growing season left in Webb City before the first fall frost — a cold frame or row cover can stretch harvest weeks past that date.

Why 04/06 isn't a guarantee

04/06 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. 04/23 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
