Spread across the upper Østerdalen valley, Stor-Elvdal opens the pollen season with hazel from January before birch peaks through April and May. Grass from surrounding farmland peaks through June and July before mugwort extends exposure into September. The Glomma valley concentrates pollen under calm conditions, while the inland continental upper Østerdalen climate produces a well-defined seasonal progression throughout.

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 Stor-Elvdal kommune based on measurements or forecasts?

Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.
