Pollen count Bolt residents check each morning

The Bolt pollen count today is 13 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 17 today. That total sits on a narrow base: weed pollen is 17 while tree pollen is just 0.6 and grass pollen 0.6. Plant-by-plant detail for Bolt, WV 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 weed pollen or mold, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Bolt 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. In the Northeast, autumn weed pollen typically winds down as colder nights arrive, so late-season totals can change quickly from week to week.

To see whether today’s pollen level holds, check the 5-day Bolt pollen forecast below — it is currently mixed, with Friday the highest day in the window.

This is the pollen count Bolt residents check each morning, built from the day’s tree, grass, weed and mold readings.

Short answer for anyone searching pollen count today Bolt: this page is updated every morning with the day’s modelled reading.

Bolt allergies today

Bolt allergies today are set by the same reading as the pollen count above: the Total Pollen Index is 13 (Low), driven mainly by Ragweed. When people ask about Bolt allergies, this is the number that answers them — one daily index built from today’s tree, grass, weed and mold readings for Bolt.

Allergies in Bolt follow the West Virginia calendar set out below — the chapters, the plants behind them, and the 5-day forecast on this page show whether today is typical for the season or an exception to it. If you are checking allergies today in Bolt before heading outdoors, the split at the top of this page is the part to read: it shows which pollen is doing the work today, not just how high the total sits.

Read the five-day table on this page as the Bolt allergy forecast: today reads 13 (Low), and the day-by-day outlook shows whether Bolt allergies are set to ease or build across the week — the days to plan outdoor time around are the ones where the index steps down, not just today.

In practice, the allergy count Bolt today records is this same combined reading — tree, grass, weed and mold in one index.

The Bolt allergy count today is 13 (Low) — the same Total Pollen Index as the pollen count above, in one combined reading.

Pollen by type in Bolt

What is driving Bolt’s pollen today

The shape of today’s 13 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 17 (Low on its own scale) — about 93% of the four category readings added together, 16.4 points clear of the next category, tree pollen at 0.6. 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 West Virginia weed chapter runs August to October — 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 Bolt, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The West Virginia guide’s account of West Virginia names oak and hickory, dominating April and May, after maple and birch open in March — 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 12 to 13, never changing band. Today’s 13 sits 0 points above the window’s average of 12.6 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Plants affecting Bolt now

Detailed plant-by-plant readings for Bolt were not returned in today\u2019s source data, so this section summarises the pollen types the index above is built from instead of listing individual plants.

Tree pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 0.6 (Low).

Grass pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 0.6 (Low).

Weed pollen is one of the categories with a non-zero reading today, at 17 (Low).

In the Northeast pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are spring trees, late-spring grasses and late-summer ragweed — named here as regional context only, not as today\u2019s measurements.

Plant detail returns here automatically on any day the source data includes it.

Bolt pollen through the year

Chapter by chapter, the Bolt pollen year runs like this:

  • Trees open in late March and build to an oak-led peak in May.
  • Grasses hold from late May into July.
  • Ragweed builds from mid-August, peaks in September, and is ended by the first hard frost.
  • Mold tracks the region’s humidity rather than a flowering calendar, and it fills the gaps between chapters.

The West Virginia allergy season guide names oak and hickory, dominating April and May, after maple and birch open in March. West Virginia’s cities all sit in narrow river valleys, where ridges hem in the air and spring pollen settles over neighborhoods instead of dispersing. In February 2023, a visible powder settling on cars across the Eastern Panhandle was sampled by the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection and found to be predominantly pollen — an early-season release heavy enough to see.

November falls between the main chapters of the West Virginia 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 West Virginia year, March to October — a compressed season, which is why its chapters arrive in quick succession. The full calendar is set out in the West Virginia allergy season guide.

How to read this index

Pollen Atlas reports the Bolt 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 Bolt, WV 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.

Bolt in today’s national picture

Pollen totals are population numbers; symptoms are personal. The same reading can leave one Bolt resident untouched and floor another, depending on which pollens they are sensitised to. If this pattern finds you every season, allergists in Bolt, WV can test whether tree, grass, weed or mold is the category that matters for you — the four readings at the top of this page are the starting point for that conversation.
