Pollen forecast for Vienna on 26 May 2026
First peaks in grass pollen levels!
The days following the weekend are also set to be sunny and unusually hot. As no rainfall is currently forecast, allergy sufferers must prepare for further days of high grass pollen levels. We are therefore already in the middle of this season’s main pollen season, during which, in addition to brome grass, false oat-grass, false barley, annual meadow grass, vernal grass, cock's foot grass, ryegrass and foxtail grass have also begun to flower.
In meadow areas, additional pollen levels from sorrel and plantain are also possible.
Linden blossom is in full swing and will continue to result in clearly measurable pollen concentrations in the air over the coming days – even though this plant is adapted to insect pollination and does not normally release much pollen into the air. The scent of the blossoms can also irritate the airways of sensitive individuals.
Our air samples are also containing increasing amounts of fungal spores, which can cause symptoms in allergy sufferers.
In addition to the pollen types mentioned, the pollen spectrum currently also includes nettles, elderberry, black locust, sour grasses, legumes and cypresses. However, these pose only a very low allergenic risk.
