The average date of the first fall frost in New York ranges from mid-September to early November. Dryden Lake in background, early morning at sunrise. Frost covers leaves, wood frames, bushes and wildflowers. Frost is a thin layer of ice on a solid surface, which forms from water vapor that deposits onto a freezing surface. Frost forms when the air contains more water vapor than it can normally hold at a specific temperature.
