Pollen count Qaanaaq residents check each morning
The Qaanaaq pollen count today is 5 (Low). No single plant stands out in today’s readings; the Grass category is the one the index is led by. Tree pollen is the highest single category in the split at 0.6 (Low), ahead of grass pollen at 0.6 and weed pollen at 0.6. Plant-by-plant detail for Qaanaaq, Greenland follows, along with the outlook for the days ahead. Pollen Atlas updated this count on Saturday, November 14, 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 Qaanaaq page.
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.

This is the pollen count Qaanaaq residents check each morning, built from the day’s tree, grass and weed readings.

Qaanaaq allergies today are set by the same reading as the pollen count above: the Total Pollen Index is 5 (Low), driven mainly by Grass. When people ask about Qaanaaq allergies, this is the number that answers them — one daily index built from today’s tree, grass and weed readings for Qaanaaq.
Allergies in Qaanaaq follow the Greenland calendar set out below — the chapters, the plants behind them, and the 5-day forecast on this page show whether today is typical for the season or an exception to it. If you are checking allergies today in Qaanaaq before heading outdoors, the split at the top of this page is the part to read: it shows which pollen is doing the work today, not just how high the total sits.
Read the five-day table on this page as the Qaanaaq allergy forecast: today reads 5 (Low), and the day-by-day outlook shows whether Qaanaaq allergies are set to ease or build across the week — the days to plan outdoor time around are the ones where the index steps down, not just today.
In practice, the allergy count Qaanaaq today records is this same combined reading — tree, grass and weed in one index.
The Qaanaaq allergy count today is 5 (Low) — the same Total Pollen Index as the pollen count above, in one combined reading.

Pollen by type in Qaanaaq
What is driving Qaanaaq’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 5 (Low) is set by tree pollen at 0.6 (Low on its own scale) — about 33% of the four category readings added together, level with grass pollen at 0.6. 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 Greenland, and the modelled value outranks any general seasonal expectation.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Qaanaaq, 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 5 to 5, never changing band. Today’s 5 sits level with the window’s average of 5 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.
Plants affecting Qaanaaq now

Qaanaaq pollen through the year
Chapter by chapter, the Qaanaaq 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 Greenland allergy season guide is published yet, so this page does not single out signature pollens for Qaanaaq — the calendar above is the Global regional pattern, and the plant detail on this page names what today’s feed actually records.
November in Qaanaaq is reported from its modelled readings, not from a regional calendar — no regional calendar is asserted for Greenland, so the calendar alone explains little today, and the modelled split above carries the story. No Greenland allergy season guide is published yet — this calendar follows the Global regional pattern. See Qaanaaq pollen count rankings and Qaanaaq on the pollen heatmap.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Qaanaaq 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.
Qaanaaq in today’s national picture
At 5 (Low), Qaanaaq ranks joint 187383rd of the 247279 cities Pollen Atlas tracks today — in the middle of the national table.

The whole table spans 95 points today — a wide-open day, when the top and bottom of the table are effectively in different seasons.

Pollen totals are population numbers; symptoms are personal. The same reading can leave one Qaanaaq resident untouched and floor another, depending on which pollens they are sensitised to. If this pattern finds you every season, allergists in Qaanaaq, Greenland can test whether tree, grass or weed is the category that matters for you — the three readings at the top of this page are the starting point for that conversation.
