Orlando pollen forecast - today, tomorrow and the week ahead

On 16 July 2026, overall pollen levels in Orlando are low. Ambrosia is the main contributor to airborne pollen, while grass remain at lower levels

On 17 July 2026, pollen conditions in Orlando will be different from today, with ambrosia at low levels

According to the five-day outlook, ambrosia and grass pollen levels will increase later in the week.

On 16 July 2026, Ambrosia is the dominant pollen source in Orlando. grass are also present but at lower levels. alder, artemisia, birch, cypress, oak, and willow are not currently active.

Orlando's subtropical climate produces an extended pollen season, with oak and pine contributing from January through spring. Grass pollen peaks through March and April, with a secondary peak possible after summer rains. The flat, open Florida landscape allows pollen from surrounding wetlands, flatwoods, and citrus groves to disperse readily across the city, while the warm, humid climate supports one of the longer pollen seasons of any US city.

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

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.

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 Orlando, 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.
