winter freeze
Cold season's grip
A winter freeze is a period of sustained cold temperatures during winter months when temperatures drop below freezing and stay there long enough to affect crops, pipes, or daily life.
The phrase often appears in weather reports and agricultural contexts: The winter freeze damaged citrus crops across Florida.
A hard or deep winter freeze indicates especially severe or prolonged cold.
