The riverbank shelters river oak, whose pollen spreads readily on the wind from spring onward; this sits close to this spot. Nearby, within the neighborhood, woods composed largely of eucalypt with wattle at the margins, a combination tied to sharp late-winter pollen spikes. Small shifts in elevation or soil type can move these figures a little either way.

When is pollen season in Drummond?

Once river oak fades, eucalypt and wattle in the woods carry the season forward, usually peaking from August into October. By late spring, grass pollen is climbing steadily toward a November high point, before continuing at a lower but still notable level through January and February.
How often is the Drummond pollen forecast updated?

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

Does pollen in Drummond 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 Drummond 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 Drummond, 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.
