Surrounding Flintshire farmland contributes substantial grass and tree pollen, moving into town when winds blow from the south. On top of that, alder and oak are the two species driving most tree pollen in Mold, especially around parks and green corridors. Overall exposure follows the broader regional trend, moderated somewhat by the town's parks and gardens.

How often is the Mold pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Mold 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 Mold 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 Mold, 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.
