Mobile's parks, including Langan Park and the Mobile River corridor, feature oak, pine, and magnolia as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these green areas and the more built-up city centre. Surrounding Alabama coastal plain woodland and wetlands contribute substantial tree and grass pollen, while the Gulf Coast position means onshore breezes can periodically disperse urban pollen.

The coastal position means onshore Gulf breezes can periodically disperse pollen, while surrounding Alabama coastal plain woodland and wetlands contribute substantial tree and grass pollen throughout the extended humid subtropical season.
How often is the Mobile pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Mobile 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 Mobile 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 Mobile, 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.
