Old Town Albuquerque tracks Albuquerque's broader pollen pattern, with palo verde and mesquite appearing from January before mulberry takes over and peaks through February. A grass pollen peak follows through March and April; a second grass and weed peak follows the summer monsoon rains from July through September. Little spring rainfall means few natural breaks in pollen release once the season starts throughout the year.

The Albuquerque 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 Albuquerque, 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.
