Local Environmental Conditions
Just over 40% of the area near this site in Cataby is open grassland, with a good deal of woodland and farmland. In the immediate area, the surrounding woods make trees an important source; open grassland and farmland add grass and weed pollen. Pasture and uncultivated field edges in the farmland provide room for grasses and weeds.
The year opens with tree pollen, which is highest around early spring. Grass pollen builds from early spring, peaks around mid-spring and stays noticeable until late summer. The season closes with a lower weed peak from early summer into early fall, mostly from roadside and field-edge plants. Day to day, sunshine and wind lift the counts, while a spell of rain can bring them down sharply.

Does pollen in Cataby 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 Cataby 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 Cataby, 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.

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. |
