Corby's parks and the River Welland corridor feature oak and ash as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these green areas and the more built-up town centre. Surrounding Northamptonshire farmland and the Rockingham Forest woodland contribute substantial tree and grass pollen, while the flat, open landscape allows pollen to disperse readily across the town under prevailing southwesterly winds throughout the season.

Oak and ash follow through April and May, with grass peaking through June and July. Rockingham Forest contributes substantial tree pollen during spring, while surrounding Northamptonshire farmland extends grass exposure into August and moderate rainfall means fewer interruptions than in wetter northwestern cities.
How often is the Corby pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Corby 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 Corby 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 Corby, 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.
