Frost dates for Beeville, TX, ZIP 78102

Zone 9b

Around 02/15 is the usual last spring frost, about 171 days away. The first fall frost typically arrives around 12/05, about 295 frost-free days later.

Zone 9b (25 to 30°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 Beeville, not a forecast for this year.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 9b around Beeville has about 14 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 02/15 isn't a guarantee

02/15 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 01/12 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 03/12 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
