AccuWeather forecasts that parts of the southeastern US will experience their first killing frost or hard freeze of the season this weekend, as cold air spreads from the Midwest and Northeast. Temperatures could fall into the low to mid-30s from northeastern Texas to northern Florida and the Carolinas, with some areas reaching the 20s and the 2026 growing season ending. Atlanta could reach the mid-30s, Raleigh could approach freezing, and Orlando could dip into the 40s. Bringing potted plants into a garage may help protect them.
