Pollen forecast for Gold Coast today
Pollen levels in Gold Coast today by trees, grasses and weeds, the forecast for the coming days, and when each plant’s pollen season usually starts and peaks.
The Gold Coast’s grass pollen season is best described by monitoring in nearby Brisbane. There, grass makes up around 60 to 70 per cent of all pollen in the air, and the count starts in November, when grasses begin to flower, and runs to the end of March, following the summer rains. Across Australia and New Zealand, subtropical sites have grass seasons with several peaks that are both intense and long, rather than a single spring peak. In Brisbane, the seasonal grass pollen index for 2016–2020 was almost three times that of 1994–1999. The calendar below is an estimate for a typical year; actual timing depends on the weather.

- 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.
