Pollen count El Calafate residents check each morning
The El Calafate pollen count today is 35 (Moderate). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 30 today. Tree pollen is the highest single category in the split at 35 (Moderate), ahead of weed pollen at 30 and grass pollen at 6. The sections below break that headline number down by plant, by day and by what the band means in practice. Pollen Atlas updated this count on Saturday, November 14, 2026.
A Moderate band means the Total Pollen Index sits in the middle of the 0–100 scale — neither a quiet day nor a peak day. On moderate days the split usually explains the total: one or two categories do most of the work while the others stay low. The El Calafate split above shows exactly which categories those are today, and the forecast below shows whether the moderate reading is a plateau or a step toward a higher band.
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 El Calafate
What is driving El Calafate’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 35 (Moderate) is set by tree pollen at 35 (Moderate on its own scale) — about 49% of the four category readings added together, 5 points clear of the next category, weed pollen at 30. Tree readings are the fastest-moving of the four in their season, because species pollinate in sequence — a tree-led total can change character within a week. Tree pollen leading in November is a modelled reading, reported as modelled — no regional calendar is asserted for Argentina, and the modelled value outranks any general seasonal expectation.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for El Calafate, 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 35 to 42, never changing band. Today’s 35 sits 3 points below the window’s average of 38.4 — a moving window, worth reading day by day rather than from the average.

El Calafate pollen through the year
The El Calafate pollen year runs in chapters, set by the Global pattern and the Argentina calendar. Trees come first: tree pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, so this page reports the measured readings first and treats any calendar as background only. Grasses take the middle of the year: grass pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, and the measured value outranks any general seasonal expectation. Weeds close it out: weed pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, and no regional calendar is asserted for this area.
No Argentina allergy season guide is published yet, so this page does not single out signature pollens for El Calafate — the calendar above is the Global regional pattern, and the plant detail on this page names what today’s feed actually records.
November in El Calafate is reported from its modelled readings, not from a regional calendar — no regional calendar is asserted for Argentina, so the calendar alone explains little today, and the modelled split above carries the story. No Argentina allergy season guide is published yet — this calendar follows the Global regional pattern. See El Calafate pollen count rankings and El Calafate on the pollen heatmap.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the El Calafate 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 El Calafate, Argentina 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.
