Forecast

The pollen release of grasses in the lowlands is clearly declining.

At medium altitudes (e.g. on flowering mountain meadows) or along forest roads or forest clearings, the irritation threshold can still be exceeded.
The flowering of plantain is moderate, can also be stronger locally and cause allergic symptoms.
Locally, meadowsweet and spirea bushes bloom, with low exposure potential.
The main pollen producer is currently stinging nettle.
The first pollen grains of the more allergenic mugwort are already causing problems. The main bloom is expected at the end of July.
The alternation of dry and wet phases promotes the multiplication of fungal spores in the air. This means that in the next few days, fungal sp ores can be expected to be a heavy burden in some cases.

The ragweed pollen season is also just around the corner! Although this only plays a minor role in Salzburg, if you would like to help us and other allergy sufferers to reduce exposure during this year's season and document locations with ragweed growth, you can report ragweed populations in your area via the Ragweed Finder app or online at ragweedfinder.at!
