Baton Rouge Grass Pollen Count: 5-Day Forecast

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

Species driving Baton Rouge’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 Baton Rouge is 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 Gulf & South Texas pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are spring trees, warm-season grasses, late-summer ragweed and winter mountain cedar in the west of the region.

The Louisiana allergy season guide singles out an early February tree start and outdoor mold, elevated much of the year in the Gulf humidity.
