Delano's San Joaquin Valley setting produces a season opening in January with oak and olive before grass from surrounding Kern County farmland peaks through April and May. Mugwort extends exposure into September, while the hot, dry Central Valley summer suppresses most pollen by July and the flat valley setting allows pollen to disperse widely. The surrounding agricultural landscape contributes substantial table grape and cotton crop pollen.

The Delano 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 Delano, 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.
