Køge's old market square and surrounding streets are framed by lime and oak, while the flat farmland stretching inland from Køge Bay produces heavy grass and cereal pollen loads through early summer. The shallow, sheltered bay itself contributes little vegetation of its own but shapes how pollen moves through the town.

How often is the Køge pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Køge 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 Køge 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 Køge, 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.
