Pollen forecast for Dallas today
Pollen levels in Dallas today by trees, grasses and weeds, the forecast for the coming days, and when each plant’s pollen season usually starts and peaks.
In Dallas, winter cedar fever largely arrives on the wind. Mountain cedar, or Ashe juniper, grows mainly in the Texas Hill Country, but when winds blow from the south its pollen travels to North Texas, and eastern red cedar in the eastern part of the state pollinates at about the same time. In some seasons cedar pollen has been detected in Dallas–Fort Worth counts as early as November; it usually reaches moderate levels by mid-December and peaks in January. Other pollen seasons follow in spring, summer and autumn. The calendar below is an estimate for a typical year; exact timing depends on the weather.

On high-pollen days
- Pollen levels are usually highest on warm, dry and windy days; rain washes pollen out of the air for a while.
- Keep windows closed when the level is high and air rooms after rain.
- After a long time outdoors, change clothes and wash your hair; dry laundry indoors.
- Sunglasses help keep pollen out of your eyes.
- If you have allergy symptoms, talk to a doctor — this page does not replace medical advice.
