NOAA 1991–2020 freeze normals

Frost Dates in Utah

Last and first frost at the 67 NOAA stations behind this site's Utah pages.

At the middle station of the 67 in Utah where a freeze comes every year, the last spring frost (50%) is May 5 and the first fall frost October 10, a freeze-free season of 156 days. The last frost is earliest at St George (St George, UT, March 14) and latest at Parowan (Brian Head, UT, June 21), 99 days apart. The season runs from 82 days at Parowan to 239 at St George.

45 of these stations were also in NOAA's previous normals, for 1981–2010. Between the two, the median station's freeze-free season grew 2 days longer, with the last spring frost 3 days earlier; the season lengthened at 27 stations and shortened at 17. The two periods share twenty years, so the change reflects mostly 2011–2020 against 1981–1990.

50% dates from NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991–2020, one row per station; a state page is published when at least 5 stations stand behind its pages. Where a freeze comes in fewer than nine winters in ten, the dates describe the winters that have one.
