Weekly pollen and fungal spore forecast summary
Pollen Forecast for West Midlands forecast region until 25th July: Pollen: all low except for moderate risk from weeds; Spores: High risk from various types.
Grass Pollen Count - Low
Grass pollen season is now in decline, with almost all grasses completley finished.
Tree Pollen Count - Low
Tree pollen is currently very low.
Fungal Spore Levels - High
Fungal spores at a high risk, as we are now in the peak period for them. Alternaria and Cladosporium will be the main spore allergens during warm, dry weather.
Didymella and allies will rise during warm, humid conditions, especially at night and in the early morning. However, the main peak is likely after a spell of rain has occurred, which will encourage more fungi to produce more spores.
No rain in the forecast for this time period, though, so the risk will be moderately high for now.
Weed Pollen Count - Moderate
Nettle family pollen at a moderate risk, soon declining.
