Santa Rita lies on the Paraíba coast north of João Pessoa, where native Atlantic Forest remnants, mangrove vegetation, and restinga coastal scrub are the main pollen sources. The tropical climate supports year-round pollen production, while the wet season from April to August provides the most frequent rainfall interruptions and the coastal position means onshore Atlantic breezes can periodically disperse pollen throughout this Paraíba coastal metropolitan municipality.

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