Beyond today’s pollen
What this forecast doesn’t measure, and when to get help.
No mold level
Google’s index covers tree, grass and weed pollen only, so there is no mold level for Oklahoma City on this page. The National Allergy Bureau publishes pollen and mold counts measured at its stations. Our guides cover common molds such as Alternaria, Cladosporium and Aspergillus.
No indoor allergens
The forecast doesn’t cover allergens indoors either: dust mites, cockroaches, mice, cats and dogs. Our guides explain each one, starting with dust mites and cats.
Asthma in Oklahoma City
An estimated 11.5% of adults in the city of Oklahoma City have current asthma, according to the CDC’s PLACES estimate for 2023 (95% confidence interval: 10.4% to 12.5%). It is a statistical estimate from national survey data, not a count.
Allergists in the Oklahoma City area
13 allergists enrolled in Medicare practice in the Oklahoma City area: 0.86 for every 100,000 people, fewer than the 1.22 across the US. The count doesn’t show how soon you can get an appointment. See the doctors listed in the Oklahoma City area, or how every state and metro compares.

Oklahoma City’s pollen seasons
The geography, climate and plants behind each season here, with a source for every fact.
Central Oklahoma’s woodlands mark the change from eastern forests to western prairies.2 In this belt, the Cross Timbers, post oak, blackjack oak and black hickory are the main trees.2 Grasses such as Indian grass and big bluestem grow where sunlight is abundant.2
Eastern redcedar, though native, has overtaken many acres of the Cross Timbers through fire suppression and passive land management.2 Before settlement, Oklahoma’s cedars were restricted to rock outcrops, gullied areas and land along streams or canyons.3 A 2005 Natural Resources Conservation Service map showed where redcedar grew, and how densely, in 12 central and northwest Oklahoma counties, Oklahoma County among them.3 For the species as a whole, the Forest Service’s Silvics manual puts pollen release in late February to early spring.4
A 1927 survey of wind-pollinated plants in every Oklahoma county put the dividing line between two ragweeds roughly through Oklahoma City and Guthrie.5 In that old survey, short ragweed was very prevalent east of the line, and western ragweed predominated to the west.5 Winters at Will Rogers airport average about 40 °F, and a typical year has about 213 freeze-free days.1
