Local Environmental Conditions
This site in Barnstable is heavily wooded, with some open grassland. The leading allergenic tree nearby is oak, with maple and juniper close behind. Grasses and weeds such as mugwort and plantain round out the local mix. Grasses along roadsides, verges and open ground also add to the overall pollen load.
Tree pollen peaks in late spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak, maple and juniper are in full flower. Grass pollen follows, peaking in early summer and easing off by early fall. Later, mugwort and plantain keep weed pollen in the air from midsummer into early fall. In warm, humid weather from early summer into early fall, mold spores add to the mix, especially after rain.

How often is the Barnstable pollen forecast updated?
The Barnstable pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Barnstable 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 Barnstable 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 Barnstable, 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.

Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
