Pollen forecast for Fort Worth today
Pollen levels in Fort Worth today by trees, grasses and weeds, the forecast for the coming days, and when each plant’s pollen season usually starts and peaks.
The Dallas–Fort Worth area straddles two landscapes: the Cross Timbers to the west, woodlands dominated by post oak and blackjack oak, and the grassy Blackland Prairies to the east. A 15-year study of the area’s pollen station found pollen in the air all year round. Juniper, locally called cedar, rules the winter: on average its season starts in mid-December, peaks in mid-January and ends in early March. Oak, the biggest pollen producer, peaks at the end of March. Grass peaks in May but continues well into autumn, and in autumn elm and ragweed make up most of the pollen, peaking in September. Exact timing varies with the weather each year.

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.
