Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Carrarang is surrounded mainly by open water, which covers around 66% of the nearby area, with some 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.
Temperatures stay between about 20°C and 25°C through the year, so plants release pollen in most months. Levels tend to be highest in the drier months around November to January. During the rainy season, frequent heavy downpours wash much of the pollen out of the air. Grasses flower again and again through the year and are the most constant source.

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