Local Environmental Conditions
This area, a short distance from here, has a green space of mown lawn and planted plane trees, both feeding into local pollen counts. Local wind exposure and land use can shift the exact mix slightly from block to block. Actual counts still shift year to year with temperature, rainfall, and prevailing wind.
By late spring, grass pollen is climbing steadily toward a November high point, then holding at a high level well into January before easing off. Neighboring parts of the region typically see this same sequence with only minor timing shifts. The overall order of species tends to hold steady, even as exact dates shift slightly each year.

How often is the Canowindra pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Canowindra 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 Canowindra 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 Canowindra, 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. |
