Tranquil summer conditions lead to a surge in airborne pollen levels
In the coming days, residents of Baden-Württemberg can look forward to pleasant temperatures and sunny skies, according to the German Weather Service (DWD) in Stuttgart. The weather is expected to gradually get warmer towards the weekend, with temperatures potentially reaching the 30-degree mark along the Rhine.
However, this sunny and warm weather comes with a caveat for allergy sufferers. The pollen flight danger index predicts a medium to high burden of grass pollen throughout Baden-Württemberg, except along the Rhine where the pollen burden is predicted to be lower. Grass pollen is one of the most common triggers of a pollen allergy, and with the main flowering season of grass pollen from May to late July, allergy sufferers should remain vigilant.
The weather in Baden-Württemberg remains calm and sunny, with no significant rain anticipated. It will be dry again quickly after any rain shower. No significant rain is anticipated for the next few days, with only a brief regional shower possible.
The DWD's prediction of pleasant temperatures and dry weather is good news for those planning outdoor activities. However, for allergy sufferers, it means that pollen levels can still be significant, especially from grasses. To manage allergies during this period, it's recommended to monitor local pollen forecasts daily, minimise outdoor activities during high pollen count days, keep windows closed, and use air purifiers indoors.
For real-time and localised pollen levels and air quality in cities like Karlsruhe or Freiburg im Breisgau, dedicated weather and environmental services can be used. However, no specific forecast details were found for the requested period. It's recommended to consult specialized pollen monitoring websites or apps for Baden-Württemberg for the most precise and up-to-date pollen forecast and allergy advice.
Along the Rhine, temperatures could potentially reach the 30-degree mark over the weekend. The air in large parts of the country will be increasingly polluted with grass pollen on Thursday and Friday. Despite the pleasant weather, allergy sufferers should continue to follow standard allergy management practices to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable summer.
More allergy sufferers should monitor the weather-forecasting closely, as the predicted warm and dry weather in Baden-Württemberg may lead to significant grass pollen levels, particularly on Thursday and Friday. Therefore, it's essential to remain vigilant and follow measures to manage allergies, such as checking local pollen forecasts, minimizing outdoor activities during high pollen count days, keeping windows closed, and using air purifiers indoors.
