It is colder than last year though. Last year we only had 17 freezes at DFW.
Here's the breakdown of freezes by month with the average number of freezes in parenthesis.
The average is not a whole number because it is averaged off a 30 year record from 1981 to 2010.
0 freezes in November (average is 2.3)
12 freezes in December (average is 9.7)
9 freezes in January (average is 12.1)
4 freezes in February (average is 6.8)
We will probably see a freeze tonight at DFW giving us one for the month of March. On average we only see 2 freezes in the month of March. The average date of the last freeze is March 13th!
Don't plant anything yet. I look for a possible freeze sometime around the 7th to 10th of this month. ~Larry
