About Pollen in Scarborough

Spring, April-May, sees elevated Birch and Oak pollen from Peasholm Park, South Cliff Gardens, and Raincliffe Woods; June-July brings dominant Grass pollen from coastal meadows, River Derwent valley, and surrounding agricultural land. Scarborough’s coastal topography and urban valleys influence pollen distribution, with sea breezes sometimes dispersing allergens but often trapping them locally; autumn, September-November, experiences elevated Mould spores from damp leaf decomposition in local woodlands.

The pollen count in Scarborough today is moderate, driven mainly by Mugwort.
