Local Environmental Conditions
This area, close to this spot, has a mix of eucalypt and wattle, wattle in particular a notorious trigger for hay fever across southern Australia. Here, not far from here, a green space of mown lawn and planted plane trees, both feeding into local pollen counts. The broader area tends to mirror this pattern, with only minor local variation.
Eucalypt and wattle in the woods pick up where river oak leaves off, peaking as wattle comes into full flower, generally August into September. Grass pollen rises through spring toward a November high point, and remaining a significant allergen right through summer until it eases in February. Exact peak dates shift by a few weeks year to year depending on temperature and rainfall.

Does pollen in Augusta 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 Augusta 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 Augusta, 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. |
