Dalby, on the Darling Downs, sits at the drier, inland edge of the subtropical zone, with tree pollen from eucalypts and acacia peaking August to October and grass pollen a major factor from September through December given the district's extensive cropping and pasture land. Warm, dry inland conditions can intensify grass pollen release compared with the humid coast, and dust from cultivation can compound pollen exposure on windy spring days.

The Dalby pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

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.

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 Dalby, 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.
