Pollen Count & Forecast for Kuwait City

Kuwait City’s spring allergy season (February-April) is dominated by Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera) and Mesquite (Prosopis juliflora) pollen; Date Palm common in Al-Shaheed Park and along Arabian Gulf Street; Mesquite abundant across desert fringes and Green Belt Park. Summer (May-October) sees high Bermuda Grass (Cynodon dactylon) pollen levels, originating from lawns at Bayan Palace. Goosefoot (Chenopodium) pollen peaks in autumn from surrounding desert scrub.

Arid desert winds and dense architecture can trap pollen, leading to localised high concentrations. Autumn sees elevated Mould (Alternaria, Cladosporium) spore counts, from moist park soils and coastal areas near Kuwait Bay.
