Frost

Hello, it's been a while since I took my Met exam and I'm trying to refresh my understanding of frost and it's effect on flying VFR. On days like this weekend, where there's frost forecast to say 11am, what's the implication of (air and ground) frost for flying a plane hangared overnight? Maybe I'd like to get the plane out around 9am, do my checks, fuel up and then depart an hour later. If I plan to avoid flying in cloud what should I be aware of regarding frost during preflight checks and departure? Thanks for your help.
