Suffolk's parks and the Nansemond River corridor feature oak, pine, and sweet gum as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these green areas and the more built-up city areas. Surrounding Great Dismal Swamp and Virginia coastal plain woodland contribute substantial tree and grass pollen, while the flat, low-lying landscape allows pollen to disperse readily across the area.

Grass pollen peaks through May and June, with ragweed extending the season into October. The Great Dismal Swamp and surrounding Virginia coastal plain woodland contribute substantial tree and grass pollen, while the Chesapeake Bay position means coastal breezes can periodically disperse urban pollen throughout the extended season.
How often is the Suffolk pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Suffolk 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 Suffolk 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 Suffolk, 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.
