Local Environmental Conditions
Coorparoo, in Brisbane's inner south-east, is a well-established residential suburb where jacaranda and poinciana flower prominently along suburban streets each spring, complementing subtropical garden plantings around Queenslander housing. Remnant fig trees occur in older gardens and small parks. Coorparoo's fairly typical inner-Brisbane residential character gives it a garden-and-street-tree-dominated pollen profile, without significant remnant bushland or agricultural influence.
Coorparoo's mix of established gardens and gently hilly streets supports a typical Brisbane tree pollen season from August through October, with grass pollen from local parks and reserves running September to December. The suburb's near-year-round humid subtropical conditions mean background pollen rarely disappears entirely, even outside the main spring-to-early-summer build. Established jacaranda and poinciana street plantings add a distinctive purple-flowering layer to the tree pollen count each spring, while local sportsgrounds keep grass pollen a steady presence into early summer.

How often is the Brisbane pollen forecast updated?
The Brisbane pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Brisbane 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 Brisbane 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, 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. |
