Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this location in Bogan Shire Council is heavily wooded. Around here, tree cover makes trees an important source. Gaps in the canopy, trails and forest edges give grasses and herbs room to grow. Much of the pollen in dense woodland is released high in the canopy, where the wind carries it easily.
Through the year, woodland and street trees lead off, with tree pollen peaking around early spring. Grass pollen builds from early spring, peaks around mid-spring and stays noticeable until late summer. A smaller weed peak follows from early summer into early fall, from plants on verges and waste ground. Dry, sunny and breezy weather raises levels within each period, and steady rain brings them down.

This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
