Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this part of Northampton is woodland, with some built-up land. Close to a watercourse, riverside trees such as poplar and plane tree contribute to what is in the air. Maple, oak and birch are among the allergenic trees nearby. Among weeds, ragweed and mugwort stand out as local pollen sources.
Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 5°C and maple, oak and birch are in full flower. Later, ragweed and mugwort keep weed pollen in the air from late summer into mid-fall. Summer is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.

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

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. |
