Pollen count Owerri residents check each morning
The Owerri pollen count today is 16 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 16 today. Grass pollen is the highest single category in the split at 17 (Low), ahead of weed pollen at 16 and tree pollen at 12. Plant-by-plant detail for Owerri, Nigeria follows, along with the outlook for the days ahead. 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 grass pollen, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Owerri 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 Owerri
What is driving Owerri’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 16 (Low) is set by grass pollen at 17 (Low on its own scale) — about 38% of the four category readings added together, 1 points clear of the next category, weed pollen at 16. Grass-led totals tend to hold a level for days at a time rather than spike and clear, because grasses pollinate over an extended period. Grass pollen leading in November is a modelled reading, reported as modelled — no regional calendar is asserted for Nigeria, and the modelled value outranks any general seasonal expectation.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Owerri, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above — it shows how much of today’s total each category is actually carrying, and plant detail returns here automatically on any day the feed includes it.
Across the five-day window the Total Pollen Index runs from 15 to 26, never changing band. Today’s 16 sits 2 points below the window’s average of 17.8 — a moving window, worth reading day by day rather than from the average.

Owerri pollen through the year
Chapter by chapter, the Owerri pollen year runs like this:
- Tree pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, so this page reports the measured readings first and treats any calendar as background only.
- Grass pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, and the measured value outranks any general seasonal expectation.
- Weed pollen seasons vary with local climate and vegetation, and no regional calendar is asserted for this area.
No Nigeria allergy season guide is published yet, so this page does not single out signature pollens for Owerri — the calendar above is the Global regional pattern, and the plant detail on this page names what today’s feed actually records.
November in Owerri is reported from its modelled readings, not from a regional calendar — no regional calendar is asserted for Nigeria, so the calendar alone explains little today, and the modelled split above carries the story. No Nigeria allergy season guide is published yet — this calendar follows the Global regional pattern. See Owerri pollen count rankings and Owerri on the pollen heatmap.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Owerri 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 Owerri, Nigeria 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.
