Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this location in Walsenburg is built-up land, with some open grassland and woodland. Along running water nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Grass pollen is a substantial part of the local mix as well. In the immediate area, planted trees and mown lawns are the main sources in the built-up parts.
The year opens with tree pollen, which is highest around mid-spring. The grass season runs from mid-spring to late summer, with its high point around early summer. Weeds take the season into its final stretch, adding modest amounts of pollen from early summer into early fall. Locally, temperatures range from around freezing in the coldest month to around 25°C in the warmest, with most rain falling in the warmer months.

Does pollen in Walsenburg 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 Walsenburg 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 Walsenburg, 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.
