Frost in Rutherglen

Frost usually arrives in Rutherglen around early April and finishes by early November. In about 1 year in 10 it comes as early as mid March or as late as mid December, so frost-tender crops are planned around those dates.

From its Bureau of Meteorology station, 1991 to 2020, counting a night at 2°C or lower as a frost. Frost hollows and hillsides can shift these dates by weeks, so ask the growers at your garden too.
