Local Environmental Conditions
Located close by, this area has the waterway's edge supports river oak, a species whose fine pollen travels well beyond the immediate bank. This area, within easy reach, has eucalypt and wattle growing together, with wattle's fine pollen especially potent during its short flowering window. Comparable land cover in surrounding areas tends to produce a similar pollen mix overall.
River oak along the water gets the season underway before other species, getting an early start, typically cresting between July and August. As spring approaches, eucalypt and wattle in the nearby woodland become the dominant source, peaking as wattle comes into full flower, generally August into September. Through spring, grass pollen climbs steadily toward its November peak, with the season extending well into summer before finally winding down in February.

How often is the Bombay pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Bombay 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 Bombay 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 Bombay, 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. |
