Pollen Count & Forecast for Hartlepool

Hartlepool’s spring allergy profile is dominated by Birch and Alder pollen (March-April) from mature urban trees, notably within Ward Jackson Park and town centre green spaces; Oak pollen (May) from established parkland areas; Grass pollen (May-July) proliferates from extensive verges and coastal grasslands, notably near Seaton Carew.

Coastal winds disperse Hartlepool’s pollen widely; however, urban microclimates, particularly within sheltered areas, can locally concentrate allergens. Late-season mould spores (August-October) are significant, exacerbated by Hartlepool’s coastal dampness and decomposing leaf litter in parks.
