How to connect?

Cabot Citrus Farms' central Florida setting features live oak, cabbage palm, and citrus trees as the main pollen sources across the Karoo Course, with the surrounding citrus grove landscape contributing a particularly distinctive and locally unique crop pollen source. Exposure varies between the open citrus-flanked fairways and the more vegetated sections, while the subtropical climate supports an extended pollen season and the flat, open Florida landscape allows pollen to disperse widely.

How often is the Tampa pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Tampa 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 Tampa 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 Tampa, 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.
