Kohtla-Järve, on the oil-shale plateau of northeastern Estonia, draws most of its pollen from birch among local trees, with grass pollen contributing from farmland and green corridors around Ida-Viru County. The built environment here creates a patchy exposure pattern, generally higher near parks and lower along the busiest streets.

When is pollen season in Kohtla-Järve?
alder and hazel marks the opening of Kohtla-Järve's season, birch follows as the main spring driver, and grass pollen keeps levels up into summer across the April-to-August window. the short Baltic summer limits late-season pollen exposure here. The surrounding Ida-Viru County landscape, on the oil-shale plateau of northeastern Estonia, plays its own part in how the season unfolds locally.
How often is the Kohtla-Järve pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Kohtla-Järve 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 Kohtla-Järve 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 Kohtla-Järve, 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.
