Local Environmental Conditions
Woodland's Sacramento Valley agricultural setting features valley oak, olive, and riparian cottonwood as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between the residential neighborhoods with their extensive valley oak canopy and the more built-up commercial corridors along Main Street. The Cache Creek Regional Park corridor provides locally significant green space, while the surrounding Yolo County agricultural landscape dominates summer pollen exposure with substantial tomato and grain crop pollen.
Woodland's Sacramento Valley setting produces a season opening in January with oak and olive before grass from surrounding Yolo County farmland peaks through April and May. Mugwort extends exposure into September, while the hot, dry Sacramento summer suppresses most pollen by July and the flat valley setting allows pollen to disperse widely. The Cache Creek corridor channels airflows through this agricultural city.

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