Lugo's parks and the Miño River corridor feature oak, birch, and chestnut as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these green areas and the more built-up city centre. Surrounding Galician farmland and woodland contribute substantial tree and grass pollen, while the Atlantic-facing position means very frequent rainfall provides regular interruptions and the Miño valley channels airflows across the historic city.

When is pollen season in Lugo?
Lugo's pollen season opens in January with hazel and alder before birch and oak peak through April and May. Grass peaks through June and July. The Miño valley channels airflows, while the very wet Atlantic Galician climate means very frequent rainfall provides regular interruptions and the season ends earlier than in drier Spanish cities.
How often is the Lugo pollen forecast updated?

The Lugo pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

Does pollen in Lugo 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 Lugo 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 Lugo, 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.
