Pollen count Taylor residents check each morning
The Taylor pollen count today is 18 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 21 today. Weed pollen leads the split at 21 (Low on its own scale), followed by tree pollen at 9 and grass pollen at 3. Below, the plant detail and the multi-day outlook show whether today is the pattern or the exception. Pollen Atlas updated this count on Friday, November 6, 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 Taylor 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.

Allergies in Taylor follow the Mississippi 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 Taylor 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 Taylor allergy forecast: today reads 18 (Low), and the day-by-day outlook shows whether Taylor 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 Taylor today records is this same combined reading — tree, grass, weed and mold in one index.
The Taylor allergy count today is 18 (Low) — the same Total Pollen Index as the pollen count above, in one combined reading.

Pollen by type in Taylor
What is driving Taylor’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 18 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 21 (Low on its own scale) — about 64% of the four category readings added together, 12 points clear of the next category, tree pollen at 9. 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 Mississippi calendar working as expected — November falls in the closing weeks of the state’s weed chapter.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Taylor, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Mississippi guide’s account of Mississippi names oak, pine and hickory in spring — the famous yellow pine dust is highly visible but only part of the spring story — 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 16 to 18, never changing band. Today’s 18 sits 1 point above the window’s average of 16.6 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.
Plants affecting Taylor now
Detailed plant-by-plant readings for Taylor 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.

Grass pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 3 (Low).
Weed pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 21 (Low).

Taylor pollen through the year
Three chapters make the Mississippi pollen year, and Taylor follows them in the Southeast order. The tree chapter: trees can start as early as February and peak in April. The grass chapter: grasses follow in May and run through the summer. The weed chapter: ragweed runs from mid-August to the first frost. Mold is the quiet fourth player, sustained by river-valley humidity between the pollen waves.
Mississippi’s outdoor season can begin with tree pollen in February and stretch into November, among the longest runs anywhere in the United States. The University of Mississippi Medical Center notes that tree pollen has historically posed its biggest threat from early March through April, with grasses following from May into July and ragweed from September through October. The Mississippi guide singles out oak, pine and hickory in spring — the famous yellow pine dust is highly visible but only part of the spring story.
November in Taylor sits inside the weed chapter of the Mississippi year, in its closing weeks — the part of the calendar today’s readings should be judged against. Between them, the three chapters cover 10 months of the Mississippi year, February to November — a long season by national standards, with only a short quiet gap. The full calendar is set out in the Mississippi allergy season guide.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Taylor 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 Taylor, MS 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.
Taylor in today’s national picture
At 18 (Low), Taylor ranks joint 56739th of the 90896 cities Pollen Atlas tracks today — in the middle of the national table. The highest reading in the country today is Serpa, Portugal at 53, and the lowest is Galiakberovo, Russia at 5. The whole table spans 48 points today — a wide-open day, when the top and bottom of the table are effectively in different seasons.
Around Taylor: Oxford, MS (6 miles away) reads 16 (Low); University, MS (7 miles away) reads 16 (Low); Water Valley, MS (8 miles away) reads 15 (Low). Taylor reads 2 points higher than its nearest tracked neighbour today. Across Mississippi’s 426 tracked cities, today runs from 13 in Abbeville to 29 in Hollandale.
Pollen totals are population numbers; symptoms are personal. The same reading can leave one Taylor resident untouched and floor another, depending on which pollens they are sensitised to. If this pattern finds you every ragweed season, allergists in Taylor, MS 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.
