According to the five-day outlook, myrtle pollen levels are expected to gradually decrease, suggesting improving conditions later in the week.

On 4 August 2026, there are no significant pollen types in Melbourne.

Wind off the coast shapes every round at The Dunes, and it also spreads ryegrass pollen efficiently across the links-style fairways from October to December. Wattle and eucalypt inland begin their own build from August, part of a tree pollen picture that includes introduced plane, oak and elm elsewhere in Melbourne, though out on this exposed stretch of peninsula coastline it's the grass season that golfers notice most.

The Melbourne 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 Melbourne, 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.
