Local Environmental Conditions
Wedel's parks and green spaces rely mainly on ash, linden, and oak as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these areas and the more built-up centre. The Holstein farmland and lakeside forest beyond the town supply further tree and grass pollen, while the lake-studded terrain creates locally variable pollen patterns.
Wedel's pollen season continues from January to August, starting with early alder and hazel already active by January before birch and oak peaking through May. Grass pollen then climbs through June and July. The town sits amid Schleswig-Holstein's lake district, where pasture and beech forest surround the town, contributing steady lake-district tree pollen into early summer.

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

Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
