Species driving Des Lacs’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 Des Lacs 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 Northern Plains pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are river-corridor cottonwood, elm and ash in spring, summer grasses, and a divided fall — ragweed in the east, sagebrush in the west.

The North Dakota allergy season guide singles out ragweed, heaviest in the Red River Valley, over river cottonwood and town elm in late spring.
