Foix's tree cover, concentrated in parks and along the Tarn, is dominated by plane and oak. Languedoc vineyards and Pyrenean farmland nearby contribute meaningful grass and crop pollen exposure, while local conditions tied to the Mediterranean-continental climate affect how far pollen spreads.

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