Pollen count Killdeer residents check each morning

The Killdeer pollen count today is 25 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 32 today. Weed pollen leads the split at 32 (Low on its own scale), followed by tree pollen at 0.6 and grass pollen at 0.6. 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 Killdeer 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.

Pollen by type in Killdeer

What is driving Killdeer’s pollen today

The shape of today’s 25 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 32 (Low on its own scale) — about 96% of the four category readings added together, 31.4 points clear of the next category, tree pollen at 0.6. 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 runs against the usual calendar — the North Dakota weed chapter runs August to October — so today’s lead is the model outranking the pattern, and this page reports the modelled reading first.

Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Killdeer, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The North Dakota guide’s account of North Dakota names ragweed, heaviest in the Red River Valley, over river cottonwood and town elm in late spring — 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 24 to 25, never changing band. Today’s 25 sits 0 points above the window’s average of 24.8 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Plants affecting Killdeer now

Detailed plant-by-plant readings for Killdeer 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.

Tree pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 0.6 (Low).

Grass pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 0.6 (Low).

Weed pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 32 (Low).

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 — named here as regional context only, not as today\u2019s measurements.

Plant detail returns here automatically on any day the source data includes it.

Killdeer pollen through the year

Three chapters make the North Dakota pollen year, and Killdeer follows them in the Northern Plains order. The tree chapter: river-corridor elm, cottonwood and ash open from March in South Dakota, while North Dakota’s trees flower in late spring, in May. The grass chapter: grasses run from May into July, peaking in June and July. The weed chapter: ragweed in the east and sagebrush in the west run from August until the first hard frost.

North Dakota’s outdoor season is compressed, typically running from late April into October, with hard winters providing a long, genuine off-season. The Red River Valley in the east records the state’s heaviest ragweed, thanks to flat, fertile fields, ditches and disturbed ground. The North Dakota guide singles out ragweed, heaviest in the Red River Valley, over river cottonwood and town elm in late spring.

November falls between the main chapters of the North Dakota pollen year — the tail of one and the approach of the next — so the calendar alone explains little today, and the modelled split above carries the story. Between them, the three chapters cover 8 months of the North Dakota year, March to October — a compressed season, which is why its chapters arrive in quick succession. The full calendar is set out in the North Dakota allergy season guide.

How to read this index

Pollen Atlas reports the Killdeer 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 Killdeer, ND 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.
