Olinda crowns a historic hilltop on the Pernambuco Atlantic coast immediately north of Recife, where native Atlantic Forest remnants, restinga coastal scrub, and introduced urban trees are the main pollen sources. The tropical climate supports year-round pollen production, while the wet season from March to August provides the most frequent rainfall interruptions and the coastal position means onshore Atlantic breezes can periodically disperse pollen throughout this UNESCO colonial city.

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