How to connect?

Perched on the outer Jæren peninsula facing the Boknafjord, Randaberg opens one of Norway's earliest pollen seasons with hazel from January before birch peaks through April and May. Grass from surrounding Jæren farmland peaks through June and July before mugwort extends exposure into September. The peninsula position means onshore winds can frequently disperse pollen, while the mild Atlantic oceanic climate provides regular rainfall interruptions throughout.

Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.

Are pollen levels in Randaberg kommune based on measurements or forecasts?

Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Randaberg kommune, 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.
