When is pollen season in Markham?

The area's oak and birch trees pollinate through mid-to-late spring, climbing steadily through spring to a peak in April or May. As spring turns to summer, grass pollen rises toward its June high, then gives way to ragweed, which drives the season's second major surge from mid-August into October.
How often is the Markham pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Markham 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 Markham 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 Markham, 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.
