La densité pollinique est d'habitude maximale en milieu de matinée et en soirée. Comme l'atmosphère des villes reste chaude plus longtemps qu'en zones rurales, la densité de pollen y est encore souvent élevée le soir. Les fortes pluies provoquent d'ordinaire une chute considérable de la densité pollinique.
