Florence's Pee Dee River corridor and surrounding Piedmont landscape feature oak, pine, and sweetgum as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between the wooded residential neighborhoods and the more built-up commercial areas. The flat coastal plain setting allows pollen to disperse widely, while the warm Southeast climate supports abundant local tree vegetation throughout the season.

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