Does anyone know of a site that has historical pollen index data (just needs to cover the last few weeks)? I am trying to figure out what precisely my son may be to.
Seems to me like all the pollen sites are like weather sites, where they only enter give the current values and forecasts.
@pganssle I’d be surprised if pollen data alone would be all that useful. If you are able, I’d highly recommend making an appointment with an allergist who will perform a pinprick test with known allergens that will be able to tell you exactly what your son is allergic to and offer recommendations for treatment. I had this done a few years ago when I moved back to the east coast — the results were quite surprising!
@jimray Sure, but the allergy came on suddenly, then went away immediately when we went to Spain, then came back on when we were in a different city in Spain. It would be useful if we could eyeball it and see what correlates with the attacks.
@pganssle Cool makes sense. Best of luck allergies are the worst and somehow worse when they’re affecting someone you live.
@pganssle it would have to be location dependent. I suggest emailing wherever you have found generating current data and asking them. In many cases, pollen forecasting is done by or in collaboration with your country's weather service and many weather services provide access to recent observations buried on their website somewhere.
