Local Environmental Conditions
This part of Gunnison is surrounded mainly by woodland, which covers around 97% of the nearby area. Along a stream or river nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. With this much woodland around, trees are an important local pollen source. Clearings, tracks and woodland edges let grasses and other flowering plants grow among the trees.
Through the seasons, tree pollen comes first, peaking around early summer. Grasses take over from early summer, with the highest levels around late summer and pollen lingering until mid-fall. The season closes with a lower weed peak from midsummer into mid-fall, mostly from roadside and field-edge plants. Here, winters average well below freezing, around -15°C and summers around 15°C, with rain spread fairly evenly through the year.

When is pollen season in Gunnison?
How often is the Gunnison pollen forecast updated?
The Gunnison pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Gunnison 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 Gunnison 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 Gunnison, 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.
Airmine’s atmospheric monitoring platform was developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team, using satellite and Earth observation technologies to improve emissions monitoring.
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. |
