Species driving Barrie’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 Barrie 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 Midwest & Great Lakes pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are spring trees, late-spring and summer grasses, and late-summer and autumn ragweed.

Grasses hold from May through July. This month sits outside the usual grass pollen window for the Midwest & Great Lakes pattern, so today’s grass pollen reading is the modelled value outranking the calendar — this page reports the modelled reading first. No Ontario allergy season guide is published yet, so the seasonal context here follows the Midwest & Great Lakes regional pattern.
