Local Environmental Conditions
Skei is a small Møre og Romsdal village in Ørsta municipality where birch, alder, and mountain farmland vegetation are the main local pollen sources. The enclosed valley setting concentrates pollen under calm conditions, while the very wet Atlantic western Norwegian climate provides very frequent rainfall interruptions and birch peaks through April and May before grass from surrounding farmland contributes through June and July throughout this small Sunnmøre community.
Skei's pollen season spans March through August, led in by alder and hazel from about March, then birch dominates with a pronounced peak which carries through May. Grass pollen then carries the season through June and July. With the sheltered inlets and exposed headlands around Skei, the local climate gives the season a character that's shaped as much by geography as by month.

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