Local Environmental Conditions
Here, in the vicinity, river oak lines the bank, contributing some of the season's more persistent wind-borne pollen. As with most local readings, actual levels can vary somewhat with short-term weather swings. The general pattern described here holds fairly steady across nearby areas with similar land cover. Local wind exposure and land use can shift the exact mix slightly from block to block.
Around Rawnsley Park Station, river oak by the water is typically first out of the gate, usually the first pollen source active, peaking sometime in July or August. Grass pollen counts rise through spring, reaching their peak around November, before gradually tapering off through the peak of summer into February.

How often is the Flinders Ranges pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Flinders Ranges 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 Flinders Ranges 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 Flinders Ranges, 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 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. |
