When is pollen season in Tirana?
Tirana's pollen season runs from February through June, opening with olive and plane tree pollen in late winter before grass pollen from surrounding Albanian farmland peaks through April and May. The warm Mediterranean climate means the season starts earlier than in northern European cities, while the hot, dry summer ends it abruptly. The enclosed Tirana basin setting concentrates pollen under calm conditions during the spring peak period.
How often is the Tirana pollen forecast updated?

The Tirana pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

Does pollen in Tirana come from nearby or far away?

Studies show that most pollen exposure (often 70–90%) comes from nearby sources, such as local trees and vegetation. A good pollen forecast therefore depends on accurately representing local vegetation. Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.

Are pollen levels in Tirana based on measurements or forecasts?

Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.

Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Tirana, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.

This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
