First & Last Frost Dates of Nevada Cities and Towns

Nevada’s weather is different across the state. In Las Vegas, you can grow plants for most of the year (335 days), but in Ely, you only get 99 days to grow plants.

Southern cities (Las Vegas, Henderson, Boulder City) have lots of time to grow plants. But northern cities and places high up in the mountains (like Ely, Wells, Spring Creek) have less time, as it can freeze from September to June.

This guide helps farmers and gardeners by showing when frost happens in different Nevada cities and towns, using nearby weather stations as reference points.

The “First Fall Frost Date” tells you when frost usually starts in fall, but it might come earlier. Think of these dates as helpful hints, not exact rules!
