Local Environmental Conditions
The area around the heart of Salon-de-Provence is densely built up, with some woodland. Of the allergenic trees nearby, oak matters most, while olive and ash also contribute. Grass pollen is plentiful, while plantain and pigweed lead among the weeds. In the immediate area, planted trees and mown lawns are the main sources in the built-up parts.
Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak, olive and ash are in full flower. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Plantain and pigweed flower through much of the warmer half of the year. In this dry climate, pollen can linger in the air for long spells without rain.

Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Salon-de-Provence 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 Salon-de-Provence, 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.
