Across Vlotho, ash, hornbeam, and birch form the backbone of local tree pollen, with parks and gardens more exposed than the town centre. Tree and grass pollen levels rise further from Westphalian farmland and hedgerow-lined fields at the town's edge, while the flat plain lets pollen disperse readily under prevailing westerly winds.

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