Pollen count Mataura residents check each morning
The Mataura pollen count today is 59 (High). No single plant stands out in today’s readings; the Grass category is the one the index is led by. The full split is tree pollen 0.6, grass pollen 59, weed pollen 30. 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 14, 2026.
A High band means the Total Pollen Index is in the upper part of the 0–100 scale, a position it only reaches when at least one pollen category is itself reading high. The split above identifies that category for Mataura today. High-band days are also the days when the day-to-day change matters most, so the forecast section below — not the single headline number — is the part of this page to compare against tomorrow’s reading.
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 Mataura
What is driving Mataura’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 59 (High) is set by grass pollen at 59 (High on its own scale) — about 66% of the four category readings added together, 29 points clear of the next category, weed pollen at 30. Grass-led totals tend to hold a level for days at a time rather than spike and clear, because grasses pollinate over an extended period. Grass pollen leading in November is a modelled reading, reported as modelled — no regional calendar is asserted for French Polynesia, and the modelled value outranks any general seasonal expectation.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Mataura, 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 37 to 59, changing band 1 time. Today’s 59 sits 15 points above the window’s average of 44.4 — a moving window, worth reading day by day rather than from the average.

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