Local Environmental Conditions
This part of Cape Bridgewater is surrounded mainly by open water, with a good deal of open grassland. With much of the immediate area made up of open water, local pollen production is limited, though pollen can still drift in from surrounding land. Grasses and pigweed growing in the surroundings are the main non-tree sources of pollen.
Grass pollen follows, peaking in midsummer and easing off by early fall. Later, pigweed keeps weed pollen in the air from early summer into early fall. In warm, humid weather from midsummer into mid-fall, mold spores add to the mix, especially after rain. Dry, sunny and breezy weather raises levels within each period, and steady rain brings them down.

Does pollen in Cape Bridgewater 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 Cape Bridgewater 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 Cape Bridgewater, 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. |
