Surubim lies in the Pernambuco Agreste north of Caruaru as a commercial hub, where native caatinga scrub, Atlantic Forest remnants, and eucalyptus are the main pollen sources. The semi-arid climate produces a compressed wet season from April to August, while the long dry season concentrates pollen production and the northeastern plateau landscape allows pollen to disperse widely throughout.

When is pollen season in Surubim?
Surubim produces pollen year-round given its equatorial setting, with native caatinga scrub and Atlantic Forest remnants pollen present throughout; the wet season from April to August brings the most frequent rainfall interruptions to an otherwise steady pollen presence.
How often is the Surubim pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Surubim 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 Surubim 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 Surubim, 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.
