Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this site in Ku-ring-gai Council is mostly woodland, with some built-up land. Along a watercourse nearby, trees such as plane tree grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Of the trees nearby, olive, plane tree and maple are the ones that matter most for allergies. Beyond the trees, grasses matter a great deal, and plantain and pigweed are the main weed sources.
Tree pollen peaks in early spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and olive, plane tree and maple are in full flower. Grasses take over in mid-spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Plantain and pigweed flower through much of the warmer half of the year. Rain is heaviest in fall, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.

How often is the Ku-ring-gai Council pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Ku-ring-gai Council 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 Ku-ring-gai Council 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 Ku-ring-gai Council, 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. |
