Plymouth, UT 84330 Frost Dates

Plymouth, UT: when does the frost end?

Zone 6a

The last spring frost here typically falls around 05/03, about 248 days from today. Fall's first freeze usually shows up around 10/12, roughly 160 days after the last spring frost.

Zone 6a (-10 to -5°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 Plymouth, not a forecast for this year.

Stretching the season past the first frost

With roughly 6 weeks until Plymouth's first fall frost, a row cover or cold frame is what stretches the last few weeks of harvest here.

How much risk comes with planting early here

05/03 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Getting tender plants in by 04/17 carries real risk, frost has hit that late in about 9 of 10 years here. Wait until 05/24 and only about 1 year in 10 sees frost after that.
