When is pollen season in Ilion?
Like the rest of Ilion, Downtown Ilion experiences a season that opens with maple and elm from March before birch and oak peaks during April and May. A grass pollen peak follows through June and July; mugwort and nettle extend exposure into September. Cold winters give way to a fast, concentrated spring pollen ramp-up across the region, which shapes conditions at Downtown Ilion much as it does elsewhere in Ilion.
How often is the Ilion pollen forecast updated?

The Ilion pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

Does pollen in Ilion 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 Ilion 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 Ilion, 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.
