Bellingham / Whatcom County   

           Pollen and Mold Counts

                     
 

Pollen and mold counts are obtained from the Asthma & Allergy Center's pollen counting station utilizing a Rotorod Aeroallergen Sampler. Counts are updated three to five times a week and provide a general representation of pollen and mold counts throughout Bellingham and Whatcom County.  Pollen and mold counts are reported according to the National Allergy Bureau's count designations NABThe count indicated refers to the number of pollen grains or mold spores per cubic meter.

Due to generally low pollen counts this time of year, pollen and mold counts will be performed less frequently through the fall time.


Updated:   Tuesday  August 31, 2010

Weed pollen low.     Mold: 597  low.


Note:  We are over the main pollen seasons for Whatcom County, unlike the Midwest and East Coast where the ragweed pollen season is starting. For our area, there are some pockets of moderate weed pollen counts and there will be varying amounts of mold spores in the air through the fall time. See Pollen Seasons below for more information on allergy seasons in our area.

See 2009 counts below, starting at the bottom, February 2009, for a rough forecast for 2010. Previous 2010 counts are also listed below.

*(Mold spore count designations are different than those for pollens. See count designations above.)
