Local Environmental Conditions
This site in Dorrigo Mountain is surrounded mainly by woodland, which covers around 59% of the nearby area, with a good deal of open grassland. Along a stream or river nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. So much tree cover makes trees an important source of pollen locally. There is plenty of grass pollen here too.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Then come the grasses, strongest in late spring and fading by early fall. A smaller weed peak follows from early summer into early fall. Mold spores join in from midsummer into early fall, when damp, warm spells let them thrive. Dry, sunny and breezy weather raises levels within each period, and steady rain brings them down.

Does pollen in Dorrigo Mountain come from nearby or far away?

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 Dorrigo Mountain 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 Dorrigo Mountain, 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.

The 0–100 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
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. |
