Water-edge hazel and willow are usually the first allergenic trees active here, climbing steadily from late winter into March. The woodland's oak and birch trees become the main pollen source by mid-spring, typically landing in April and May. Grass pollen becomes the dominant allergen through late spring, peaking in June, then gives way to ragweed, which drives the season's second major surge from mid-August into October.

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

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.

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 Wainfleet, 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.
