Local Environmental Conditions
This area, in the wider area, has river oak grows along the bank here, releasing fine wind-borne pollen typical of casuarina species. A stand of eucalypt with wattle through the understorey, wattle ranked among the region's sharpest allergens, in the surrounding area. The broader area tends to mirror this pattern, with only minor local variation.
The water-adjacent river oak is an early riser, arriving ahead of the rest of the season, cresting around mid-winter. As spring approaches, eucalypt and wattle in the nearby woodland become the dominant source, usually hitting its highest point sometime between mid-August and mid-September. As spring turns to summer, grass pollen rises toward its November high, before staying elevated through the summer months into late January.

Does pollen in Cardstone come from nearby or far away?

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 Cardstone 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 Cardstone, 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. |
