Lyon has a mix of urban areas, tree-lined streets, river corridors, and surrounding hills, creating moderate pollen exposure—especially in spring when tree pollen like plane, birch, and oak peaks, and in early summer when grasses contribute, with river breezes sometimes helping disperse pollen in more open areas.

Does pollen in Lyon 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 Lyon 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 Lyon, 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.
