Pollen and allergies — Rzeszów

Rzeszów is the capital of Podkarpacie, set in the Sandomierz Basin on the Wisłok river. The warmer, more continental climate of this southeastern corner of Poland means the pollen season starts earlier here than elsewhere in the country. Surrounding farmland and mixed forests with birch and hazel provide diverse allergen sources throughout much of the year.

Main allergens and season

  • February–March: hazel and alder, locally in river valleys and near water bodies.
  • March–May: birch, oak, and ash.
  • May–July: grasses on meadows, fields, and roadsides.
  • August–September: mugwort and ragweed on vacant land and field edges.

The forecast uses the European CAMS model through Open-Meteo. Levels are modeled, not measured at a local station within this service, so they are orientative.
