Water-edge river oak is usually the first allergenic tree active here, peaking in mid-winter through September. As spring approaches, eucalypt and wattle in the nearby woodland become the dominant source, climbing steadily through late winter to a peak in August or September. Grass pollen takes over next, building to a peak around November, holding through the summer months before tapering off by late February.

The Lock pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

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.

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 Lock, 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.
