Local Environmental Conditions
Here, near this part of town, river oak grows along the bank here, releasing fine wind-borne pollen typical of casuarina species. Woodland dominated by eucalypt and wattle, with wattle the more potent allergen of the two; this sits close to this spot. Nearby, close to this spot, maintained parkland where turf grass and ornamental plane trees add to the local pollen mix.
The bank's river oak kicks off the pollen season ahead of the rest, usually peaking sometime between July and September. By late winter, eucalypt and wattle in the woods take over, reaching its high point through August and into October. Grass pollen becomes the dominant allergen through spring, peaking in November, with levels staying elevated into the new year before finally easing off.

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. |
