Local Environmental Conditions
The riverbank shelters river oak, whose pollen spreads readily on the wind from spring onward; this sits a short distance from here. Forest where eucalypt and wattle share the canopy and margins, wattle driving most of the seasonal pollen spike; this sits close by. The general pattern described here holds fairly steady across nearby areas with similar land cover.
River oak near the water opens the pollen calendar early, hitting its peak before most other trees flower, around July into September. The woodland's eucalypt and wattle trees become the main pollen source as wattle flowers, reaching maximum intensity across the August-September window. Through spring, grass pollen climbs steadily toward its November peak, then holding at a high level well into January before easing off.

Does pollen in Ilford 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 Ilford 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 Ilford, 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. |
