Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Coffin Bay is surrounded mainly by open water. 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, pigweed and pellitory growing in the surroundings are the main non-tree sources of pollen.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 15°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. The season closes with pigweed and pellitory from early summer into early fall. In this dry climate, pollen can linger in the air for long spells without rain.

Does pollen in Coffin Bay 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 Coffin Bay 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 Coffin Bay, 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. |
