Paving is much less susceptible to temperature issues than is sealing. Asphalt paving can be done until the ground is frozen, usually around mid-December. This is because the asphalt comes to the job site very hot and the air doesn't cool it very quickly. When the asphalt comes in contact with frozen ground; however, it often will become firm before it can be rolled to grade. Consequently, the final surface is frozen, may appear very rough and tend to "ravel," i.e. lose stone, shortly after the work is completed.
