Pollen Atlas models the daily detail as an overall index: day-by-day splits by individual pollen type are not part of the modelled data, so this table shows Golden’s overall trend across the week. Today’s ragweed pollen reading is the headline above.

Species driving Golden’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 18 (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 and sagebrush-family weeds close the year from late summer. This month sits outside the usual ragweed pollen window for the Mountain West pattern, so today’s ragweed pollen reading is the modelled value outranking the calendar — this page reports the modelled reading first. The New Mexico allergy season guide singles out juniper and elm in spring, and chenopod and ragweed-family weeds after the monsoon.
