Local Environmental Conditions
Here, close to this spot, the waterway's edge supports hazel and willow, species known for potent, wind-carried pollen. The general pattern described here holds fairly steady across nearby areas with similar land cover. Local wind exposure and land use can shift the exact mix slightly from block to block. Actual counts still shift year to year with temperature, rainfall, and prevailing wind.
Water-edge hazel and willow are usually the first allergenic trees active here, starting well before the main spring rush, topping out around March. Through late spring, grass pollen climbs steadily toward its June peak, handing off to ragweed, which peaks from mid-August through October. Small variations in local weather can nudge these windows a few days in either direction.

When is pollen season in Wilmington?
How often is the Wilmington pollen forecast updated?
The Wilmington pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Wilmington 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 Wilmington 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 Wilmington, 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.

Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
