Local Environmental Conditions
Pinto's suburban Madrid setting and the Manzanares River corridor feature oak, pine, and ash as the main tree pollen sources across this southern Madrid suburb. Surrounding Castilian farmland and the semi-arid Meseta landscape contribute substantial grass and crop pollen, while the dry continental climate concentrates pollen dispersal during the spring season under prevailing southwesterly winds.
Pinto's dry Castilian Meseta setting produces a season opening with hazel and olive in February before oak and ash peak through April. Grass from surrounding farmland peaks strongly through May and June before mugwort and nettle extend exposure into September. The dry continental climate concentrates pollen during spring and the intense summer heat suppresses but does not entirely eliminate late-season exposure.

When is pollen season in Pinto?
How often is the Pinto pollen forecast updated?
The Pinto pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Pinto 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 Pinto 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 Pinto, 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.
Airmine’s atmospheric monitoring platform was developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team, using satellite and Earth observation technologies to improve emissions monitoring.
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. |
