Frost dates for Annetta North, TX, ZIP 76008

Zone 8b

Zone 8b (15 to 20°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 Annetta North, not a forecast for this year.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 8b around Annetta North 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 03/25 isn't a guarantee

03/25 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 03/04 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 04/15 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
