Betim forms the Belo Horizonte western metropolitan industrial corridor, where eucalyptus, native cerrado remnants, and introduced urban trees are the main pollen sources. The cerrado climate produces a well-defined pollen season, with the dry season from May to September concentrating pollen dispersal and the wet summer months bringing frequent rainfall interruptions throughout this important Minas Gerais Fiat and petrochemical city.

How often is the Betim pollen forecast updated?
The Betim pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Betim 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 Betim 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 Betim, 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.
