Calais' seafront green spaces and the Channel waterfront feature oak, birch, and alder as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these areas and the more built-up port city centre. Surrounding Nord-Pas-de-Calais farmland contributes substantial grass and crop pollen, while the exposed English Channel position means onshore winds frequently disperse pollen across the strait city throughout the season.

How often is the Calais pollen forecast updated?
The Calais pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Calais 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 Calais 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 Calais, 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.
