El Paso Zoo tracks El Paso's broader pollen pattern, with mountain cedar appearing from December then oak and elm follows, running through March. Grass pollen then peaks through April and May, and a long ragweed tail continues into October. Mild winters here allow mountain cedar to release large amounts of pollen well before spring, a defining feature of the local season.

The El Paso 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 El Paso, 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.
