Pollen count Palm Bay residents check each morning
The Palm Bay pollen count today is 17 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 18 today. Tree pollen is the highest single category in the split at 18 (Low), ahead of weed pollen at 18 and grass pollen at 8. 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 Friday, November 6, 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 tree pollen, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Palm Bay page.
Florida’s mild climate supports a longer and less sharply divided pollen calendar than most of the United States: tree, grass and weed pollen can each appear across more of the year, and no single month reliably clears the index to zero. Florida pages should therefore be read from their modelled split rather than from a northern seasonal calendar. A low Florida total is a low modelled day, not an off-season guarantee, and the five-day outlook matters more here than in strongly seasonal climates.

Pollen by type in Palm Bay
What is driving Palm Bay’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 17 (Low) is set by tree pollen at 18 (Low on its own scale) — about 41% of the four category readings added together, level with weed pollen at 18. 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 runs against the usual calendar — the Florida tree chapter runs January to April — 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 Palm Bay, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Florida guide’s account of Florida names oak, the signature spring event that often begins in February — 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 17 to 19, never changing band. Today’s 17 sits 1 point below the window’s average of 17.8 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Palm Bay pollen through the year
The Palm Bay pollen year runs in chapters, set by its own pattern and the Florida calendar. Trees come first: cedar and then oak open the year, oak beginning as early as February. Grasses take the middle of the year: grasses run from spring into October or later. Weeds close it out: ragweed arrives in late summer and fall, for a shorter window than in the Midwest, alongside a fall mold surge.
The Florida allergy season guide names oak, the signature spring event that often begins in February. Pollen Atlas data shows Miami recording measurable pollen in every month of a typical year — Florida’s calendar rarely clears to zero. Fall in Florida combines its shorter ragweed season with a mold surge from leaf litter and tropical-season rain.
November in Palm Bay sits inside the weed chapter of the Florida year, in its closing weeks — the part of the calendar today’s readings should be judged against. Between them, the three chapters cover 11 months of the Florida year, January to November — a long season by national standards, with only a short quiet gap. The full calendar is set out in the Florida allergy season guide.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Palm Bay 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 Palm Bay, FL 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.
