Pollen count Eagle Butte residents check each morning
The Eagle Butte pollen count today is 5 (Low). No single plant stands out in today’s readings; the Grass category is the one the index is led by. Tree pollen is the highest single category in the split at 0.6 (Low), ahead of grass pollen at 0.6 and weed pollen at 0.6. The sections below break that headline number down by plant, by day and by what the band means in practice. 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 tree pollen, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Eagle Butte page.
Outside its main late-spring and early-summer window, grass pollen usually appears as a small background value rather than the driver of the total. A low grass reading alongside a higher weed or mold value is a typical off-peak pattern. Grass should be read from its own value on this page, not assumed from the calendar: the index reports today’s modelled value, and the modelled value outranks any general seasonal expectation.

Pollen by type in Eagle Butte
What is driving Eagle Butte’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 5 (Low) is set by tree pollen at 0.6 (Low on its own scale) — about 33% of the four category readings added together, level with grass pollen at 0.6. Tree readings are the fastest-moving of the four in their season, because species pollinate in sequence — a tree-led total can change character within a week. Tree pollen leading in November runs against the usual calendar — the South Dakota tree chapter runs March to May — 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 Eagle Butte, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The South Dakota guide’s account of South Dakota names river-corridor cottonwood, elm and ash in spring, and a divided fall — ragweed in the east, sagebrush in the west — 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 5 to 5, never changing band. Today’s 5 sits level with the window’s average of 5 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Eagle Butte pollen through the year
The Eagle Butte pollen year runs in chapters, set by the Northern Plains pattern and the South Dakota calendar. Trees come first: river-corridor elm, cottonwood and ash open from March in South Dakota, while North Dakota’s trees flower in late spring, in May. Grasses take the middle of the year: grasses run from May into July, peaking in June and July. Weeds close it out: ragweed in the east and sagebrush in the west run from August until the first hard frost.
The South Dakota allergy season guide names river-corridor cottonwood, elm and ash in spring, and a divided fall — ragweed in the east, sagebrush in the west. The Missouri River splits the state into two regimes: a humid, farmed east where ragweed dominates the fall, and a dry, ranched west ruled by sagebrush, wormwood and Russian thistle. The Black Hills run their own cooler, higher calendar, while the southeastern corner around Sioux Falls starts earliest and finishes latest.
November falls between the main chapters of the South 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 South 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 South Dakota allergy season guide.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Eagle Butte 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 whatever the month. 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.
