On 16 July 2026, Grass is the dominant pollen source in Winschoten. alder, artemisia, birch, hazel, cypress, and willow are not currently active.

Come April and May it's oak and ash contributing most, and grass climbs to the top spot across June and July. the Winschoterdiep canal shapes local dispersal, while the peat-colony farmland of East Groningen adds to the seasonal picture around Winschoten.

The Winschoten pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

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.

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 Winschoten, 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.
