How Randolph AFB’s pollen count works

No live count is wired up for Randolph AFB today, so the seasonal calendar above is your guide to which allergen is in season. Counts run highest on warm, dry, windy mornings and drop after rain, which washes pollen out of the air — reported on the None / Low / Moderate / High / Very High scale.
Frequently asked
- When is pollen worst in Randolph AFB?
- The late-summer ragweed run is the headline in Randolph AFB: weed pollen peaks Aug–Nov, the longest and most punishing window of the year here. Tree pollen comes first (Feb–Apr) and grass bridges the gap (Apr–Sep), but it's the ragweed stretch that floors most sufferers. Currently, grass pollen is what's driving counts this month.
- What's in the air in Randolph AFB right now?
- In June, grass pollen is in season in Randolph AFB — the dominant allergen you're likely reacting to right now. A live count, when available, confirms the day's actual reading; this reflects the typical peak windows for Randolph AFB's warm, humid subtropical Southeast climate.
- Is tree or grass pollen higher in Randolph AFB in spring?
- In spring, tree pollen leads in Randolph AFB — trees pollinate Feb–Apr, ahead of grass (Apr–Sep). The handoff is the tail of the tree window: tree counts taper as grass climbs, so an early-spring flare is more likely tree pollen and a late-spring one more likely grass.
- What makes Randolph AFB's pollen season distinctive?
- Randolph AFB sits in the warm, humid subtropical Southeast zone, which means an unusually long, overlapping season — the warm climate stretches grass across much of the year and pushes ragweed deep into autumn. That shapes when symptoms hit and which allergen to watch.
- How do I reduce pollen exposure in Randolph AFB?
- Through Randolph AFB's peak windows (tree Feb–Apr, grass Apr–Sep, ragweed Aug–Nov), keep windows shut and run AC on recirculate; counts run highest on dry, warm, windy mornings, so push outdoor activity to late afternoon or just after rain, which clears pollen from the air. A HEPA purifier indoors, a saline rinse after being outside, showering before bed, and starting antihistamines a week or two before your worst local window all measurably cut symptoms.
- What pollen index counts as high?
- Pollen is reported on a categorical scale — None, Low, Moderate, High, and Very High. "High" and above means most allergy sufferers notice symptoms even with brief outdoor exposure, and sensitized people should limit time outside and pre-medicate. "Low" to "Moderate" usually only affects highly sensitive individuals.
