Local Environmental Conditions
The area around the heart of Baie-Comeau is mostly woodland, with some built-up land and open grassland. Close to the Lawrence River, riverside vegetation adds to local tree pollen. So much tree cover makes trees an important source of pollen locally. In the built-up parts of the area, street trees, gardens and park lawns add to the local mix.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in late spring. Grasses take over in midsummer, with temperatures around 15°C, and their pollen lingers into late summer. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around freezing, pollen levels are low again. Weather shapes each of these periods: dry, windy spells drive levels up, and showers wash pollen out of the air.

How often is the Baie-Comeau pollen forecast updated?
The Baie-Comeau pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Baie-Comeau 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 Baie-Comeau 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 Baie-Comeau, 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.
Airmine’s atmospheric monitoring platform was developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team, using satellite and Earth observation technologies to improve emissions monitoring.
Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
