Local Environmental Conditions
Around 47% of the area near this site in Adavale is woodland, with a good deal of bare ground and open grassland. Along a watercourse nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. In the immediate area, the woodland makes trees an important source; open grassland adds grass and weed pollen.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grasses take over in early spring and keep pollen in the air into mid-fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in summer, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.

Does pollen in Adavale come from nearby or far away?
Studies show that most pollen exposure (often 70–90%) comes from nearby sources, such as local trees and vegetation. A good pollen forecast therefore depends on accurately representing local vegetation. Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Adavale based on measurements or forecasts?
Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.
Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Adavale, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.
This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.

Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen or mold spores may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen/mold exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen/mold exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
