Virginia Beach Pollen Report
Virginia Beach combines a long southern growing season with coastal humidity — a recipe for a ten-month allergy calendar. Pine and oak cover Hampton Roads each spring, grasses run through the humid summer, ragweed fills the fall, and the Chesapeake Bay keeps mold spores active nearly year-round. Sea breezes help some days, but the region's pollen load is real.

What drives allergies in Virginia Beach
Trees: oak and pine (February – May)
Oaks (Quercus) and loblolly pine drive the spring season, with maple and sweetgum contributing. March and April are the peak.
Grasses: Bermuda (April – September)
Bermuda grass lawns pollinate through the long, humid coastal summer.
Weeds: ragweed (August – November)
Ragweed (Ambrosia) thrives in the region's disturbed soils and along the bay's shorelines, with counts elevated until a late first frost.
Mold: coastal, nearly year-round
Chesapeake Bay humidity keeps Alternaria and Cladosporium active most of the year, with spikes after storms and nor'easters.
