How to connect?

Chambers Bay's Puget Sound Pierce County Washington setting features shore pine, fescue grass, and ocean spray as the main pollen sources across the links-style course, with exposure varying between the exposed Puget Sound-facing fairways and the more sheltered inland sections. The Puget Sound position means onshore winds can frequently disperse pollen, while the wet Pacific oceanic climate provides very frequent rainfall interruptions throughout the spring and summer season.

When is pollen season in Seattle?
Chambers Bay – Championship Course tracks Seattle's broader pollen pattern, with alder and birch appearing from February with maple joining in and continuing through March and April. Grass pollen then peaks through May and June, and mugwort and nettle extend exposure into September. The damp, mild regional climate keeps pollen counts lower than in drier parts of the country, though spring rain events can trigger brief spikes, a defining feature of the local season.
How often is the Seattle pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Seattle 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 Seattle 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 Seattle, 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.
