What is driving Madison’s pollen today

The shape of today’s 13 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 15 (Low on its own scale) — about 56% of the four category readings added together, 4 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 Georgia 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 Madison, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Georgia guide’s account of Georgia names oak, pine and hickory, overlapping at the April peak — 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 13 to 18, never changing band. Today’s 13 sits 3 points below the window’s average of 16.2 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Madison pollen through the year

Chapter by chapter, the Madison pollen year runs like this:

• Trees can start as early as February and peak in April.
• Grasses follow in May and run through the summer.
• Ragweed runs from mid-August to the first frost.
• Mold is the quiet fourth player, sustained by river-valley humidity between the pollen waves.

The Georgia allergy season guide names oak, pine and hickory, overlapping at the April peak. Atlanta’s counting station has reported a spring day above 14,000 grains per cubic meter, among the highest figures reported in the United States. South Georgia starts each wave earlier and finishes later than the north Georgia mountains, so the same state can be weeks apart in its season at any given moment.

November in Madison sits inside the weed chapter of the Georgia 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 Georgia year, February to November — a long season by national standards, with only a short quiet gap. The full calendar is set out in the Georgia allergy season guide.

How to read this index

Pollen Atlas reports the Madison 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 Madison, GA 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.
