Pollen count Grande Prairie residents check each morning
The Grande Prairie pollen count today is 12 (Low). No single plant stands out in today’s readings; the Grass category is the one the index is led by. The full split is tree pollen 0.6, grass pollen 15, weed pollen 0.6. Below, the plant detail and the multi-day outlook show whether today is the pattern or the exception. Pollen Atlas updated this count on Saturday, November 7, 2026.
A Low band on the Pollen Atlas index means the Total Pollen Index has stayed in the lower part of the 0–100 scale. Readings in this band are built from low individual category values rather than from one large spike, and the category split above matters more than the headline number: a low total can still contain one category, such as grass pollen, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Grande Prairie page.
Outside its main late-spring and early-summer window, grass pollen usually appears as a small background value rather than the driver of the total. A low grass reading alongside a higher weed or mold value is a typical off-peak pattern. Grass should be read from its own value on this page, not assumed from the calendar: the index reports today’s modelled value, and the modelled value outranks any general seasonal expectation.

Pollen by type in Grande Prairie
What is driving Grande Prairie’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 12 (Low) is set by grass pollen at 15 (Low on its own scale) — about 93% of the four category readings added together, 14.4 points clear of the next category, tree pollen at 0.6. Grass-led totals tend to hold a level for days at a time rather than spike and clear, because grasses pollinate over an extended period. Grass pollen leading in November runs against the usual calendar — the Alberta grass chapter runs May to August — so today’s lead is the model outranking the pattern, and this page reports the modelled reading first.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Grande Prairie, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above — it shows how much of today’s total each category is actually carrying, and plant detail returns here automatically on any day the feed includes it.
Across the five-day window the Total Pollen Index runs from 12 to 15, never changing band. Today’s 12 sits 2 points below the window’s average of 14.4 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Grande Prairie pollen through the year
Three chapters make the Alberta pollen year, and Grande Prairie follows them in the South-Central Plains order. The tree chapter: river-corridor trees open from February — elm and maple first, then oak and hickory. The grass chapter: prairie grasses take over in late May and hold the summer. The weed chapter: ragweed builds from mid-August to the first hard frost, carried county to county by plains wind. Mold shares the long middle of the year, fed by river-bottom humidity.
No Alberta allergy season guide is published yet, so this page does not single out signature pollens for Grande Prairie — the calendar above is the South-Central Plains regional pattern, and the plant detail on this page names what today’s feed actually records.
November falls between the main chapters of the Alberta pollen year — the tail of one and the approach of the next — so the calendar alone explains little today, and the modelled split above carries the story. Between them, the three chapters cover 9 months of the Alberta year, February to October — leaving a quiet gap of roughly 3 months in the depth of the off-season. No Alberta allergy season guide is published yet — this calendar follows the South-Central Plains regional pattern. See Grande Prairie pollen count rankings and Grande Prairie on the pollen heatmap.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Grande Prairie pollen count on a Total Pollen Index from 0 to 100, built from separate tree, grass and weed readings. The total is a summary, not an average of the three: a single strong category can lift it, and three quiet categories can hold it down whatever the month. Index values are a modelled pollen risk index computed by Pollen Atlas from open weather, vegetation and phenology data, calibrated against CDC/NAB season data, with plant detail by the Google Pollen API. The index is a modelled 0–100 scale, not a measured count, and figures update through the day, so a morning and an evening visit to this page can legitimately show different numbers.
