Farmer’s Almanac Predicts Texas’ First Frost Dates of 2024

We are currently dealing with the hottest week of the year around Texas, but we know at some point, the hot weather will go away and one morning during the fall, it will feel quite frosty outside.

Let's be honest, the first day of Fall 2024, is just over a month away and while we will still have a few warm weeks in late September, it won't be long before we are sipping hot chocolate and getting ready for Halloween.

For years now the Farmer's Almanac has been making predictions about our weather and there are a lot of people who rely on the Farmer's Almanac when it comes to planting and harvesting season. Yes cooler weather is on its way to Texas (eventually) and that means our first frost of the season will be here before we know it. So when will Texas experience a frost? With as big of a state that we live in, the first frost really depends on where you live.
