The USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map puts Brookside Village in Zone 9b (25 to 30°F average annual minimum); frost dates are NOAA's 1991-2020 station normal, not this year's forecast.
Stretching the season past the first frost
With roughly 17 weeks until Brookside Village's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.
Why 01/30 isn't a guarantee
01/30 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 03/01 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 12/29 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.
