Local Environmental Conditions
Around 69% of the area near this location in Monkerai is open grassland, with a good deal of woodland. With running water close by, riverside vegetation contributes to the local mix. The surrounding woodland makes trees an important local pollen source. Grasses add a sizeable share of the local pollen.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grasses take over in mid-spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in fall, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.

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 Monkerai 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 Monkerai, 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.

| 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. |
