Local Environmental Conditions
Clovis' parks, including Clovis Avenue Park and the Kings River corridor, feature oak, ash, and olive as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these green areas and the more built-up city centre. The surrounding San Joaquin Valley farmland and the Sierra Nevada foothills contribute substantial grass and crop pollen, while the flat, open valley landscape allows pollen to disperse readily across the city.
Clovis' pollen season in California opens with oak and olive from late January in the mild Central Valley climate. Ash follows through February and March, with grass peaking strongly through April and May. The flat, enclosed San Joaquin Valley landscape allows substantial farmland grass and crop pollen to accumulate under prevailing valley winds, while the Sierra Nevada foothills to the east contribute additional tree pollen during spring.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pollen in California

When is pollen season in Clovis?
How often is the Clovis pollen forecast updated?
The Clovis pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Clovis 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 Clovis 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 Clovis, 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 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
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. |
