Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Colo Heights is heavily wooded. With running water close by, riverside vegetation contributes to the local mix. Trees are an important local pollen source, given how much woodland surrounds the area. Grasses are a major source, with pigweed adding to the weed pollen load. Gaps in the canopy, trails and forest edges give grasses and herbs room to grow.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in late winter. Grasses take over in mid-spring and keep pollen in the air into late summer. Later, pigweed keeps weed pollen in the air from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in fall, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels. Within each of these periods, warm, dry and windy days push levels higher, while rain clears the air.

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 Colo Heights 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 Colo Heights, 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. |
