Roubaix's canal-side green spaces and the Roubaix Canal corridor feature oak, birch, and linden as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these areas and the densely built industrial city centre. Surrounding Nord-Pas-de-Calais farmland along the Belgian border contributes substantial grass and crop pollen, while the temperate oceanic climate means frequent rainfall provides regular interruptions throughout the season.

How often is the Roubaix pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Roubaix 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 Roubaix 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 Roubaix, 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.
