Pollen count Hanceville residents check each morning
The Hanceville pollen count today is 18 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 21 today. Weed pollen leads the split at 21 (Low on its own scale), followed by tree pollen at 11 and grass pollen at 2. 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 weed pollen or mold, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Hanceville page.
Fall is ragweed season across most of the United States: ragweed plants release pollen from late summer into autumn, and weed pollen is typically the last major outdoor pollen category to fade as the weather cools. That pattern is why an autumn total is so often weed-led even when the headline number is low — tree and grass pollen have usually receded by then, leaving weed pollen, and on damp days mold, to make up most of what the index records.

Pollen by type in Hanceville
What is driving Hanceville’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 18 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 21 (Low on its own scale) — about 62% of the four category readings added together, 10 points clear of the next category, tree pollen at 11. A weed-led total is the classic late-year shape: tree and grass pollen have usually receded, leaving weed pollen — and on damp days mold — to make up most of what the index records. Weed pollen leading in November is the Alabama calendar working as expected — November falls in the closing weeks of the state’s weed chapter.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Hanceville, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Alabama guide’s account of Alabama names oak and hickory, peaking through spring, over a late-winter cedar and juniper opening — the pollens behind readings of this shape in this state — and the split shows how much of today’s total each category is actually carrying.
Across the five-day window the Total Pollen Index runs from 16 to 18, never changing band. Today’s 18 sits 1 point above the window’s average of 17 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Hanceville pollen through the year
Three chapters make the Alabama pollen year, and Hanceville follows them in the Southeast order. The tree chapter: trees can start as early as February and peak in April. The grass chapter: grasses follow in May and run through the summer. The weed chapter: ragweed runs from mid-August to the first frost. Mold is the quiet fourth player, sustained by river-valley humidity between the pollen waves.
Alabama’s season is among the longest in the country: tree pollen can start in January on the Gulf Coast, and ragweed can run into October or November before frost ends it. The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America has placed Birmingham in its national Allergy Capitals rankings, a measure of pollen, medicine use and specialist access combined. The Alabama guide singles out oak and hickory, peaking through spring, over a late-winter cedar and juniper opening.
November in Hanceville sits inside the weed chapter of the Alabama year, in its closing weeks — the part of the calendar today’s readings should be judged against. Between them, the three chapters cover 10 months of the Alabama year, February to November — a long season by national standards, with only a short quiet gap. The full calendar is set out in the Alabama allergy season guide.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Hanceville 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 even in a month when Hanceville, AL pollen is usually more active. 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.
