Local Environmental Conditions
The heart of East Ryde is surrounded mainly by woodland, which covers just over 65% of the nearby area, with some built-up land. A watercourse nearby means riverside trees such as plane tree are part of the local pollen picture. Plane tree heads the list of allergenic trees nearby, ahead of olive. Grass pollen is significant here, and pigweed and pellitory contribute weed pollen.
Plane tree and olive lead the season in early spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in mid-spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into mid-fall. The season closes with pigweed and pellitory from early summer into early fall. Mold spores join in from midsummer into early fall, when damp, warm spells let them thrive.

Does pollen in East Ryde 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 East Ryde 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 East Ryde, 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.

Understanding the Scale
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. |
