Roy, UT 84067 Frost Dates

When can you plant in Roy, UT?

Zone 7a

Around 04/22 is the usual last spring frost, about 237 days away. The first fall frost typically arrives around 10/22, about 180 frost-free days later.

Roy sits in USDA Zone 7a (0 to 5°F average annual minimum). The dates above are NOAA's 1991-2020 normal at the nearest reporting station, a 30-year average, not a forecast.

What to do before the first frost

About 8 weeks of growing season left in Roy before the first fall frost — a cold frame or row cover can stretch harvest weeks past that date.

Why 04/22 isn't a guarantee

04/22 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 04/04 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 05/10 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
