Pollen Atlas models the daily detail as an overall index: day-by-day splits by individual pollen type are not part of the modelled data, so this table shows Akureyri’s overall trend across the week. Today’s grass pollen reading is the headline above.

Species driving Akureyri’s grass pollen

The modelled data reports grass as one combined index — there is no species-by-species split for grass anywhere in the data, so this page does not invent one. Today’s modelled grass index for Akureyri is 27 (Low), and the 5-day overall trend above shows the shape of the week.

As regional context only — not as today’s readings — in the Nordic & Baltic North pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are a compressed birch-led spring, a brief early-summer grass peak, and a short late-summer mugwort finish.

What this grass pollen level means

Low risk. Keep windows open; consider allergy meds only if sensitive.

Enjoy outdoor activities.

Grasses own a brief early-summer peak, cresting around the first hay cutting in June and July. This month sits outside the usual grass pollen window for the Nordic & Baltic North pattern, so today’s grass pollen reading is the modelled value outranking the calendar — this page reports the modelled reading first. No Iceland allergy season guide is published yet, so the seasonal context here follows the Nordic & Baltic North regional pattern.
