Local Environmental Conditions
Harderwijk's Veluwe woodland fringe and the IJsselmeer waterfront feature oak, birch, and pine as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between the wooded Veluwe edge and the more built-up city centre. The Veluwe heathland and woodland are a particularly significant local pollen source, while the IJsselmeer coastal position means onshore winds can periodically disperse pollen across the historic Hanseatic city.
Harderwijk's pollen season runs from January through August, opening with hazel and alder from January before birch peaks through April. Oak and pine follow through April and May, with grass peaking through June and July. The Veluwe woodland makes tree pollen a particularly significant spring source, while the IJsselmeer coastal position means onshore winds can periodically interrupt exposure and surrounding farmland extends grass pollen into August.

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