Pollen Counts Skill
Get current and forecast pollen levels for a US ZIP code using the public
Pollen.com forecast API.
Usage
python3 <skill-dir>/scripts/pollen_count.py <ZIP_CODE>
Parameters:
ZIP_CODE (required): a valid 5-digit US ZIP code.
The script prints a formatted report with yesterday/today/tomorrow pollen
index values (0–12 scale), a level description, and the top allergens driving
the count.
Requirements
- Python 3 with the
requests package (pip install requests).
Notes
- The Pollen.com API returns empty periods for invalid ZIP codes; the script
reports that as an error rather than guessing.
