Local Environmental Conditions
This area, close to this spot, has river oak lines the bank, contributing some of the season's more persistent wind-borne pollen. Here, close to this spot, a nearby park's turf and plane trees layer additional pollen onto the seasonal grass count. Actual counts still shift year to year with temperature, rainfall, and prevailing wind.
River oak near the water opens the pollen calendar early, topping out well before most other trees start releasing pollen, around July and August. Grass pollen takes over next, building to a peak around November, then persisting at a reduced but still meaningful level into the new year. Local weather swings can shift these windows slightly, but the overall order tends to hold.

Does pollen in Airlie Beach 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 Airlie Beach 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 Airlie Beach, 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 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
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. |
