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 Cork’s overall trend across the week. Today’s grass pollen reading is the headline above.

Species driving Cork’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 Cork is 0.6 (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 Atlantic West pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are early hazel and alder, a spring birch and oak wave, late-spring and summer grasses, and a modest late-summer weed finish.

What this grass pollen level means

Google’s Pollen API rates grass pollen very low today.

Pollen levels are very low right now. It's a great day to enjoy the outdoors!

Grasses hold from late May into July, peaking in late spring and early summer. This month sits outside the usual grass pollen window for the Atlantic West pattern, so today’s grass pollen reading is the modelled value outranking the calendar — this page reports the modelled reading first. No Ireland allergy season guide is published yet, so the seasonal context here follows the Atlantic West regional pattern.

Cork allergies today

Cork allergies today are set by the same reading as the Cork pollen count today: the Total Pollen Index is 20 (Low), and the grass pollen index on this page is 0.6 (Low) of it.

Allergies in Cork follow the Ireland calendar set out on the full Cork page — the chapters, the plants behind them, and the 5-day forecast show whether today is typical for the season or an exception to it. If you are checking allergies today in Cork before heading outdoors, the grass pollen split on this page is the part to read: it shows whether this pollen type is doing the work today, not just how high the total sits.

Read the five-day overall trend above as the Cork allergy forecast for the grass pollen season: it shows whether Cork allergies are set to ease or build across the week, day by day — the days to plan outdoor time around are the ones where the overall index steps down, not just today.
