Pollen arrives early in Kungsbacka, with alder and hazel already active in January ahead of a pronounced birch surge through April and May. Grass takes over from birch through the summer months of June and July. Kungsbacka's location relative to the Kattegat coast means daily pollen readings can swing with changes in wind direction. The tail end of the season, into August, is shaped mainly by oak forest bordering the farmland around the area.

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

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.

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 Kungsbacka, 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.
