Pollen count Carter residents check each morning
The Carter pollen count today is 8 (Low). The main driver is Ragweed, with weed pollen at 10 today. Weed pollen leads the split at 10 (Low on its own scale), followed by tree pollen at 0.6 and grass pollen at 0.6. Below, the plant detail and the multi-day outlook show whether today is the pattern or the exception. 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 Carter 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.

When people ask about Carter allergies, this is the number that answers them — one daily index built from today’s tree, grass, weed and mold readings for Carter.
Allergies in Carter follow the Wyoming 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 Carter 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 Carter allergy forecast: today reads 8 (Low), and the day-by-day outlook shows whether Carter 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 Carter today records is this same combined reading — tree, grass, weed and mold in one index.
The Carter allergy count today is 8 (Low) — the same Total Pollen Index as the pollen count above, in one combined reading.

Pollen by type in Carter
What is driving Carter’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 8 (Low) is set by weed pollen at 10 (Low on its own scale) — about 89% of the four category readings added together, 9.4 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 Wyoming 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 Carter, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Wyoming guide’s account of Wyoming names sagebrush, the state’s signature allergen, flowering from August into October and peaking in September — 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 8, never changing band. Today’s 8 sits 2 points above the window’s average of 5.6 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.
Plants affecting Carter now
Detailed plant-by-plant readings for Carter 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 10 (Low).
In the High Basins pattern, the plants that typically shape this city’s year are river-corridor cottonwood and juniper, brief-summer meadow grasses, and sagebrush flowering late — named here as regional context only, not as today\u2019s measurements.

Carter pollen through the year
Three chapters make the Wyoming pollen year, and Carter follows them in the High Basins order. The tree chapter: spring is a river-corridor season — cottonwood and juniper from March into May — because most of Wyoming’s trees grow where the water is. The grass chapter: meadow and hay grasses carry the brief summer, from June into August. The weed chapter: sagebrush flowers from August into October and peaks in September, and the first hard frost ends it.
Spring is a river-corridor season — cottonwood and juniper from March into May — because most of Wyoming’s trees grow where the water is. Wind is a season-maker here: pollen routinely arrives from far beyond the local landscape, so a town’s bad day may be grown a basin away. The Wyoming guide singles out sagebrush, the state’s signature allergen, flowering from August into October and peaking in September.
November falls between the main chapters of the Wyoming 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 Wyoming year, March to October — a compressed season, which is why its chapters arrive in quick succession. The full calendar is set out in the Wyoming allergy season guide.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Carter 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 Carter, WY 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.
Carter in today’s national picture
At 8 (Low), Carter ranks joint 81632nd of the 90896 cities Pollen Atlas tracks today — in the middle of the national table. The highest reading in the country today is Serpa, Portugal at 53, and the lowest is Galiakberovo, Russia at 5. The whole table spans 48 points today — a wide-open day, when the top and bottom of the table are effectively in different seasons.
Around Carter: Fort Bridger, WY (9 miles away) reads 5 (Low); Urie, WY (10 miles away) reads 10 (Low); Lyman, WY (10 miles away) reads 10 (Low). Carter reads 3 points higher than its nearest tracked neighbour today. Across Wyoming’s 204 tracked cities, today runs from 5 in Casper to 31 in Dubois.
Pollen totals are population numbers; symptoms are personal. The same reading can leave one Carter resident untouched and floor another, depending on which pollens they are sensitised to. If this pattern finds you every season, allergists in Carter, WY 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.
