Frost dates for Beaumont, Texas
Texas · first & last freeze, from NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals
In a typical year, the last spring freeze around Beaumont comes near February 14 and the first fall freeze near December 4. One year in ten, a freeze still arrives after March 11 in spring — and one year in ten, the first fall freeze has already landed by November 13. NCEI's own growing-season statistic (days between freezes, percentiled per year) puts the median at 299 days.
Freeze-date probabilities, three thresholds
| Threshold | Last spring — 9 in 10 years past by | Last spring — typical (median) | Last spring — 1 in 10 years later than | First fall — 1 in 10 years by | First fall — typical (median) | First fall — 9 in 10 years by |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 36°F — near-freezing (frost can occur) | February 3 | March 1 | March 25 | November 4 | November 22 | December 12 |
| 32°F — freezing | January 17 | February 14 | March 11 | November 13 | December 4 | January 7 |
| 28°F — hard freeze | December 28 | January 28 | February 22 | November 27 | December 28 | January 29 |
Measured at Beaumont City, TX (USC00410611), 2.9 mi from the city's census reference point, elev. 20 ft. NOAA/NCEI 1991–2020 normals. Read each date column as odds over the 30-year record — e.g. "9 in 10 years past by" means only one spring in ten saw a later freeze than that date.
Frost-free windows (computed)
| Window (32°F ends) | Opens | Closes | Length |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cautious (1-in-10 freeze risk at each end) | March 11 | November 13 | 247 days |
| Typical (median freeze dates) | February 14 | December 4 | 293 days |
| Gambler's (9-in-10 freeze risk at each end) | January 17 | January 7 | 355 days |
Pure arithmetic on the freeze-date percentiles above — the "cautious" window opens on the date only 1 year in 10 still sees a later spring freeze, and closes on the date by which only 1 year in 10 has already frozen.
