Reggio Calabria sits on the Strait of Messina facing Sicily, in the Calabria region; oak and plane are the leading tree pollen sources locally, and grass and coastal scrub pollen adds to totals from local farmland and green spaces through spring. The surrounding Calabria countryside shapes how exposure varies across the built-up and open parts of the area, with noticeably calmer conditions once the main oak and plane peak has passed.

Does pollen in Reggio Calabria 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 Reggio Calabria 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 Reggio Calabria, 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.
