Species driving Butte-Silver Bow’s ragweed pollen
Species-level counts are not part of the modelled data Pollen Atlas publishes — the modelled index is reported per pollen type, not per species — so this section gives the type summary: ragweed pollen reads 0.6 (Low) today. The plant-by-plant detail that is available, from the Google Pollen API, is in the next section.
How to read this: the “ragweed” figure on this site is the modelled weed pollen index — the weed group (ragweed + mugwort) — printed under the ragweed name the rankings use.

What this ragweed pollen level means
Low risk. Keep windows open; consider allergy meds only if sensitive.
Enjoy outdoor activities.
Ragweed, sagebrush, wormwood and pigweed run from August until the first hard frost, typically in October. This month sits outside the usual ragweed pollen window for the Northern Rockies pattern, so today’s ragweed pollen reading is the modelled value outranking the calendar — this page reports the modelled reading first. The Montana allergy season guide singles out sagebrush, flowering late on the dry benches, over a grass summer of timothy, orchard grass, bluegrass and ryegrass.
