Frost dates for Lindale, TX, ZIP 75706

Zone 8b

Typically, the last spring freeze lands around 03/08, roughly 192 days out. The first fall frost typically arrives around 11/22, about 258 frost-free days later.

The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Lindale in Zone 8b (15 to 20°F average annual minimum); frost dates are NOAA's 1991-2020 station normal, not this year's forecast.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 8b around Lindale has about 12 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 03/08 isn't a guarantee

03/08 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 02/16 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 03/29 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
