Pollen forecast for Tulsa today
Pollen levels in Tulsa today by trees, grasses and weeds, the forecast for the coming days, and when each plant’s pollen season usually starts and peaks.
Tulsa has a long local pollen record: the University of Tulsa has run a pollen trap on a campus rooftop since December 1986. It shows juniper pollen in two waves. In December and January, wind carries it from Ashe juniper woodlands in south-central Oklahoma and central Texas; from February through May it comes mainly from native eastern red cedar, along with ornamental cypresses, and that spring season has grown about a month longer over three decades. Elm pollinates from February to April and oak, on average, from around 20 March to the beginning of May. Grasses have the longest season, from mid-April to mid-October, and ragweed runs from late August to late October. Exact dates shift with 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.
