When is pollen season in Pekin?

The area's oak and birch trees pollinate through mid-to-late spring, cresting around April and May in the year's sharpest tree-pollen spike. Late spring brings rising grass pollen that crests in June, with ragweed then rising to the fore from mid-August through October.

Does pollen in Pekin 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 Pekin 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 Pekin, 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.
