Local Environmental Conditions
Forest where eucalypt and wattle share the canopy and margins, wattle driving most of the seasonal pollen spike; this sits close to this spot. Located close by, this area has a park combining lawn grass and plane trees, both contributors to pollen here through the warmer months. Actual counts still shift year to year with temperature, rainfall, and prevailing wind.
Eucalypt and wattle nearby take over the pollen calendar through late winter, topping out in the August-to-September stretch. Grass pollen takes over next, building to a peak around November, before pollen counts gradually decline through January and February. Exact peak dates shift by a few weeks year to year depending on temperature and rainfall.

Does pollen in Bendalong 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 Bendalong 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 Bendalong, 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. |
