What is driving Swede Heaven’s pollen today

The shape of today’s 9 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 11 (Low on its own scale) — about 55% of the four category readings added together, 5 points clear of the next category, grass pollen at 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 Washington weed chapter runs August to September — 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 Swede Heaven, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Washington guide’s account of Washington names alder and hazelnut from January on the west side, and timothy and sagebrush on Spokane’s continental clock — 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 6 to 13, never changing band. Today’s 9 sits 1 point above the window’s average of 8 — a moving window, worth reading day by day rather than from the average.

Swede Heaven pollen through the year

Three chapters make the Washington pollen year, and Swede Heaven follows them in the Pacific Northwest order. The tree chapter: alder and hazelnut can start in January west of the Cascades, with maple and oak following through April and May. The grass chapter: grasses run from May, peaking in late spring and early summer. The weed chapter: weeds are the minor act — sagebrush and tumbleweed east of the Cascades carry into September. Mold is the wet-season constant west of the Cascades, where rain crashes counts and the season restarts on the first dry, mild day.

Washington’s pollen season now starts about 20 days earlier and lasts almost a month longer than 30 years ago, according to the state Department of Health. UW Medicine specialists put the start of Seattle’s tree pollen season at around mid-February in a typical year. The Washington guide singles out alder and hazelnut from January on the west side, and timothy and sagebrush on Spokane’s continental clock.

November falls between the main chapters of the Washington 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 9 months of the Washington year, January to September — leaving a quiet gap of roughly 3 months in the depth of the off-season. The full calendar is set out in the Washington allergy season guide.

How to read this index

Pollen Atlas reports the Swede Heaven 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.
