Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this location in Novar Gardens is a mix of built-up land and open grassland. Close to a stream or river, riverside trees such as willow contribute to what is in the air. Of the allergenic trees nearby, olive matters most, while ash also contributes. Grasses are a major source, with pigweed and plantain adding to the weed pollen load.
Olive and ash lead the season in late spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Then come the grasses, strongest in late spring and fading by early fall. The season closes with pigweed and plantain from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in winter, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.

Does pollen in Novar Gardens 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 Novar Gardens 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 Novar Gardens, 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.
