Local Environmental Conditions

A canopy of eucalypt threaded with wattle, wattle chief among them for allergenic potency here, close to this spot. This area, just around the area, has a park whose turf grass and ornamental plane trees feed local pollen levels through spring.
The bank's river oak kicks off the pollen season ahead of the rest, hitting its peak before most other trees flower, around July into September. Further into late winter, the area's eucalypt and wattle stands drive the pollen count, topping out in the August-to-September stretch. Through spring, grass pollen climbs steadily toward its November peak, with the season extending well into summer before finally winding down in February.

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 Brisbane City 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 Brisbane City, 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. |
