Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Bilbao is densely built up. Oak is the most prominent allergenic tree nearby, with alder and hazel also present. Grasses and weeds such as pellitory and plantain round out the local mix. In the immediate area, planted trees and mown lawns are the main sources in the built-up parts.
The pollen year starts in late winter, when alder and hazel flower. Oak follows in mid-spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. 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. Fall is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Does pollen in Bilbao 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 Bilbao 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 Bilbao, 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.
