"Degree" in this case can refer to degree Celsius or degree Fahrenheit. When based on Celsius, 0 degrees of frost is the same as 0 °C, and any other value is simply the negative of the Celsius temperature. When based on Fahrenheit, 0 degrees of frost is equal to 32 °F. Conversion formulas: T [degrees of frost] = 32 °F − T [°F] T [°F ...
In the southern part of Finland, -15 °C (5 °F) is considered the limit of severe frost. The thermometer in the picture shows -17 °C (1.4 °F). The English word "frost" has 2 base meanings that are related to each other but nevertheless sufficiently different: temperature of air below the freezing point of water (ca 273 K)
Many plants can be damaged or killed by freezing temperatures or frost. This varies with the type of plant, the tissue exposed, and how low temperatures get; a "light frost" of −2 to 0 °C (28 to 32 °F) damages fewer types of plants than a "hard frost" below −2 °C (28 °F). [9] [10]

A motorist traveling north or south on Sunday along Interstates 77, 79, 81, 99 or 87 may experience a temperature difference of 30-40 degrees in a matter of 50-100 miles.
The three main types of ground frost are radiation frost (), advection frost (advection hoar frost) and evaporation frost.The latter is a rare type which occurs when surface moisture evaporates into drier air causing its temperature at the surface to fall at or under the freezing point of water.
