Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this part of A Coruña is mostly open water, with some built-up land and open grassland. Oak and alder are among the allergenic trees in the wider area. Grasses, pellitory and plantain growing in the surroundings are the main non-tree sources of pollen. Local vegetation is sparse, so most pollen arrives on the wind from surrounding land.
The pollen year starts in late winter, when alder flowers. Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak is in full flower. Grass pollen follows, peaking in early summer and easing off by early fall. Pellitory and plantain flower through much of the warmer half of the year.

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 A Coruña 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 A Coruña, 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.
