Pollen count Paia residents check each morning
The Paia pollen count today is 15 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 16 today. Weed pollen leads the split at 16 (Low on its own scale), followed by grass pollen at 14 and tree pollen at 13. 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 7, 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 weed pollen or mold, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Paia page.
Fall is ragweed season across most of the United States: ragweed plants release pollen from late summer into autumn, and weed pollen is typically the last major outdoor pollen category to fade as the weather cools. That pattern is why an autumn total is so often weed-led even when the headline number is low — tree and grass pollen have usually receded by then, leaving weed pollen, and on damp days mold, to make up most of what the index records.
To see whether today’s pollen level holds, check the 5-day Paia pollen forecast below — it is currently holding, with Saturday the highest day in the window.
This is the pollen count Paia residents check each morning, built from the day’s tree, grass, weed and mold readings.

Short answer for anyone searching pollen count today Paia: this page is updated every morning with the day’s modelled reading.
Paia allergies today
Paia allergies today are set by the same reading as the pollen count above: the Total Pollen Index is 15 (Low), driven mainly by Ragweed. When people ask about Paia allergies, this is the number that answers them — one daily index built from today’s tree, grass, weed and mold readings for Paia.
Allergies in Paia follow the Hawaii 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 Paia 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 Paia allergy forecast: today reads 15 (Low), and the day-by-day outlook shows whether Paia 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 Paia today records is this same combined reading — tree, grass, weed and mold in one index.
The Paia allergy count today is 15 (Low) — the same Total Pollen Index as the pollen count above, in one combined reading.

Pollen by type in Paia
What is driving Paia’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 15 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 16 (Low on its own scale) — about 37% of the four category readings added together, 2 points clear of the next category, grass pollen at 14. 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 Hawaii calendar working as expected — November falls in the opening weeks of the state’s weed chapter.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Paia, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Hawaii guide’s account of Hawaii names kiawe, flowering most heavily in late winter and spring, and grasses that pollinate in nearly every month — 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 15 to 15, never changing band. Today’s 15 sits level with the window’s average of 15 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.
Plants affecting Paia now
Detailed plant-by-plant readings for Paia were not returned in today\u2019s source data, so this section summarises the pollen types the index above is built from instead of listing individual plants.
Tree pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 13 (Low).
Grass pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 14 (Low).
Weed pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 16 (Low).
In the Hawaii pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are grasses that pollinate in nearly every month and kiawe flowering most heavily in late winter and spring, with mold in the wet season — named here as regional context only, not as today\u2019s measurements.
Plant detail returns here automatically on any day the source data includes it.

Paia pollen through the year
Three chapters make the Hawaii pollen year, and Paia follows them in the state’s own order. The tree chapter: kiawe, the signature tree of the dry leeward lowlands, flowers most heavily in late winter and spring, in overlapping waves rather than a single spring flush. The grass chapter: grasses pollinate in nearly every month, with the strongest run from spring into summer and a peak from March through August. The weed chapter: the guides name no separate weed chapter for Hawaii — the year is carried by grasses, tree waves and wet-season mold. The wet season, roughly November through April, shifts the burden toward mold and indoor damp even as outdoor pollen eases in places.
Hawaii has no frost and no true off-season: grasses pollinate in nearly every month, with the strongest grass run from spring into summer. Windward towns trade some dry pollen for persistent damp and mold, while leeward towns trade mold for dust, grass pollen and, on Hawaii Island, vog. The Hawaii guide singles out kiawe, flowering most heavily in late winter and spring, and grasses that pollinate in nearly every month.
November in Paia sits in the overlap of the grass and weed chapters of the Hawaii year — overlap weeks, when two chapters feed the same total and the split matters more than the headline. Between them, the three chapters touch every month of the Hawaii year — there is no reliably empty month in this calendar. The full calendar is set out in the Hawaii allergy season guide.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Paia 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 Paia, HI 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.
Paia in today’s national picture
At 15 (Low), Paia ranks joint 68240th of the 90896 cities Pollen Atlas tracks today — in the middle of the national table. The highest reading in the country today is Beja, Portugal at 52, and the lowest is Los Ángeles de San Rafael, Spain at 5. The whole table spans 47 points today — a wide-open day, when the top and bottom of the table are effectively in different seasons.
Around Paia: Haliimaile, HI (4 miles away) reads 14 (Low); Haiku-Pauwela, HI (4 miles away) reads 14 (Low); Makawao, HI (5 miles away) reads 14 (Low). Paia reads 1 point higher than its nearest tracked neighbour today. Across Hawaii’s 163 tracked cities, today runs from 7 in Honaunau-Napoopoo to 25 in Waikoloa Village.
Pollen totals are population numbers; symptoms are personal. The same reading can leave one Paia resident untouched and floor another, depending on which pollens they are sensitised to. If this pattern finds you every ragweed season, allergists in Paia, HI can test whether tree, grass, weed or mold is the category that matters for you — the four readings at the top of this page are the starting point for that conversation.
