Species driving Drayton’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.

Ragweed in the east and sagebrush in the west run from August until the first hard frost.

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