Local Environmental Conditions
Around Windom, located not far from here, this area has the water's edge is thick with hazel and willow, whose pollen spreads readily in early spring. The park's turf and planted trees form a small but steady source of grass and ragweed pollen; this sits just around the area. Local wind exposure and land use can shift the exact mix slightly from block to block.
In Windom, the water-adjacent hazel and willow are early risers, building through the tail end of winter into March. Grass pollen rises through late spring toward a June high point, with ragweed then rising to the fore from mid-August through October. Year-to-year timing varies a little, though the general sequence stays fairly consistent here.

How often is the Windom pollen forecast updated?
The Windom pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Windom 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 Windom 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 Windom, 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/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
