Local Environmental Conditions
River oak crowds the water's edge here, a well-known contributor to local casuarina pollen counts, near this part of town. Located just outside the immediate area, this area has a park combining lawn grass and plane trees, both contributors to pollen here through the warmer months. The general pattern described here holds fairly steady across nearby areas with similar land cover.
River oak near the water opens the pollen calendar early, starting well before the main spring rush, topping out around September. By late spring, grass pollen is climbing steadily toward a November high point, with the season extending well into summer before finally winding down in February. Year-to-year timing varies a little, though the general sequence stays fairly consistent here.

Does pollen in Mount Morgan 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 Mount Morgan 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 Mount Morgan, 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 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
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. |
