Local Environmental Conditions
This part of Hawkesbury City Council is surrounded mainly by woodland, which covers around 91% of the nearby area. Along a watercourse nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Olive is the most prominent allergenic tree nearby. Grass pollen is significant here, and pigweed and plantain contribute weed pollen.
Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and olive is in full flower. Grass pollen follows, peaking in mid-spring and easing off by late summer. Pigweed and plantain bring a final peak from early summer into early fall. Fall is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.
