Fields and hedgerows just outside town push grass pollen counts up noticeably once the region's typical south-westerlies set in. On top of that, plane and lime are the two species driving most tree pollen in Yeovil, especially around parks and green corridors. The relatively open, low-lying landscape lets pollen disperse readily across the area through the season.

When is pollen season in Yeovil?
If you're wondering when hay fever kicks off in Yeovil, it's mostly down to plane and lime. Then grass pollen takes the baton from May all the way to September, usually peaking in June and July — that's when most people really feel it. Plane gets going around April and tapers off by June, then lime carries on from May until July. Not a bad idea to stock up on antihistamines before it all kicks off.
How often is the Yeovil pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Yeovil 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 Yeovil 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 Yeovil, 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.
