Average Last Frost Date

 

May 20th: That means there is still a 50% chance of frost after May 20

June 4th:  That means there is 10% chance of frost after June 4th.

This year:  There is a full moon May 17th.  Many of us believe it is safe to plant when it warms up after the full moon.  We always check the 10 day forecast.  It is posted at Country Junction.
