Pollen count Ar Rifā‘ residents check each morning
The Ar Rifā‘ pollen count today is 24 (Moderate). No single plant stands out in today’s readings; the Grass category is the one the index is led by. Weed pollen is the highest single category in the split at 24 (Moderate), ahead of grass pollen at 22 and tree pollen at 14. Plant-by-plant detail for Ar Rifā‘, Bahrain follows, along with the outlook for the days ahead. 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 Ar Rifā‘ 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.
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 Ar Rifā‘
What is driving Ar Rifā‘’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 24 (Moderate) is set by weed pollen at 24 (Moderate on its own scale) — about 40% of the four category readings added together, 2 points clear of the next category, grass pollen at 22. 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 a modelled reading, reported as modelled — no regional calendar is asserted for Bahrain, and the modelled value outranks any general seasonal expectation.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Ar Rifā‘, 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 23 to 24, never changing band. Today’s 24 sits 1 point above the window’s average of 23.4 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Ar Rifā‘ pollen through the year
Chapter by chapter, the Ar Rifā‘ pollen year runs like this:
- Tree pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, so this page reports the measured readings first and treats any calendar as background only.
- Grass pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, and the measured value outranks any general seasonal expectation.
- Weed pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, and no regional calendar is asserted for this area.
No Bahrain allergy season guide is published yet, so this page does not single out signature pollens for Ar Rifā‘ — the calendar above is the Global regional pattern, and the plant detail on this page names what today’s feed actually records.
November in Ar Rifā‘ is reported from its modelled readings, not from a regional calendar — no regional calendar is asserted for Bahrain, so the calendar alone explains little today, and the modelled split above carries the story. No Bahrain allergy season guide is published yet — this calendar follows the Global regional pattern. See Ar Rifā‘ pollen count rankings and Ar Rifā‘ on the pollen heatmap.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Ar Rifā‘ 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.
