Local Environmental Conditions
River oak grows along the bank here, releasing fine wind-borne pollen typical of casuarina species, just around the area. Nearby, a short distance from here, tree cover made up mostly of eucalypt and wattle, wattle in particular a well-known seasonal trigger. This area, close to home here, has mown grass and planted plane trees in a nearby park, adding to the seasonal pollen mix.
The waterside river oak is consistently first to release pollen each year, 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, generally peaking somewhere between August and October. Grass pollen builds through spring and peaks in November, before staying elevated through the summer months into late January.

How often is the Cecil Plains pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Cecil Plains 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 Cecil Plains 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 Cecil Plains, 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. |
