Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this location in Kempsey is woodland, with some wetland. The surrounding woodland makes trees an important local pollen source. Grasses are a major source, with pigweed adding to the weed pollen load. Around here, wetland vegetation adds grasses, sedges and rushes. Undergrowth, clearings and woodland edges add smaller amounts of grass and herb pollen.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. Grass pollen follows, peaking in early spring and easing off by mid-fall. Pigweed brings a final peak from early summer into early fall. Warm, humid weather keeps mold spores around for most of the year as well. Dry, sunny and breezy weather raises levels within each period, and steady rain brings them down.

Does pollen in Kempsey 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 Kempsey 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 Kempsey, 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. |
