Nikiski Ragweed Pollen Count: 5-Day Forecast

Pollen Atlas models the daily detail as an overall index: day-by-day splits by individual pollen type are not part of the modelled data, so this table shows Nikiski’s overall trend across the week. Today’s ragweed pollen reading is the headline above.

Species driving Nikiski’s ragweed pollen

Species-level counts are not part of the modelled data Pollen Atlas publishes — the modelled index is reported per pollen type, not per species — so this section gives the type summary: ragweed pollen reads 20 (Low) today. The plant-by-plant detail that is available, from the Google Pollen API, is in the next section.

How to read this: the “ragweed” figure on this site is the modelled weed pollen index — the weed group (ragweed + mugwort) — printed under the ragweed name the rankings use.

There is no ragweed chapter at these latitudes — ragweed is essentially absent, and the late window belongs to mold.

The Alaska allergy season guide singles out paper birch, dominating a compressed May peak, with alder and cottonwood opening for it.
