Local Environmental Conditions
Just over 55% of the area near this site in Bunbury is open water, with a good deal of built-up land. Running water nearby means riverside vegetation is part of the local pollen picture. Grasses and pigweed growing in the surroundings are the main non-tree sources of pollen. Local vegetation is sparse, so most pollen arrives on the wind from surrounding land.
Grass pollen follows, peaking in late spring and easing off by mid-fall. The season closes with pigweed from early summer into early fall. Winter is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen. Dry, sunny and breezy weather raises levels within each period, and steady rain brings them down.

How often is the Bunbury pollen forecast updated?
The Bunbury pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Bunbury 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 Bunbury 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 Bunbury, 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 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
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. |
