Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this location in Lake Cathie is a patchwork of open water, wetland and woodland. Close to Lake Cathie, lakeside vegetation adds to local tree pollen. Grass pollen is plentiful, while pigweed and plantain lead among the weeds. Pollen also travels on the wind, so vegetation in the wider surroundings adds to local levels as well.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grasses take over in early spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into mid-fall. The season closes with pigweed and plantain from early summer into early fall. Mold spores are in the air most of the year too, rising after rain.

How often is the Lake Cathie pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Lake Cathie 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 Lake Cathie 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 Lake Cathie, 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. |
