Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this site in Gillenbah is open grassland, with some woodland. Lawns and planted trees in a nearby park add to local grass and tree pollen. Trees are an important local pollen source, given how much woodland surrounds the area. Grasses and weeds such as pigweed round out the local mix.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. The season closes with pigweed from early summer into early fall. Summer is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

How often is the Gillenbah pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Gillenbah 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 Gillenbah 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 Gillenbah, 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. |
