Michigan Fall Foliage: When Will It Freeze?

by David Harrison – Chief Editor September 25, 2025

written by David Harrison – Chief Editor

Michigan‘s first Freeze Dates Arrive: What to Expect this ‌Fall

Lansing,MI – september 25,2025 – As fall officially began on September 22nd,Michigan residents are bracing for the season’s first freeze.⁤ Average first freeze dates across the state range from early September in the Upper Peninsula and northern Lower Michigan to late October in the⁤ southern portions of the state,according to data from the Midwestern Regional Climate Center (MRCC). Understanding these dates is crucial for gardeners, farmers, and anyone preparing for colder weather.

The MRCC, a collaboration between the National Centers for Environmental Facts and Purdue University, ⁣provides interactive maps detailing average ⁤freeze‍ dates from 1950 to 2024. These maps show that counties in the Upper Peninsula and northern Michigan typically experience their⁤ first freeze ‌in early ⁢September, while the Lower Peninsula generally sees freezing temperatures arrive between late September and late October. On average, Michigan begins to see freezing temperatures in ⁢mid-September to ⁤early November.

But what’s⁣ the difference between a frost⁢ and a freeze? According to the Old ‌Farmer’s Almanac, frost forms when temperatures are near or above 32 degrees Fahrenheit, while a ‍freeze occurs when temperatures drop‌ to or below ⁢32 degrees. The Almanac offers first and last frost dates for specific Michigan ⁣cities.

These dates are important because freezing temperatures‌ can substantially⁣ impact plants and outdoor infrastructure. Gardeners‌ should take steps to protect sensitive plants, and homeowners should prepare for potential issues like frozen pipes. The MRCC’s interactive maps and the Old⁤ Farmer’s Almanac’s frost date tool are valuable resources for staying informed and‍ prepared throughout the fall season.
