Local Environmental Conditions
Located within the local area, this area has woodland dominated by eucalypt and wattle, with wattle the more potent allergen of the two. Year-to-year swings in rainfall and wind can shift this picture somewhat either way. Comparable land cover in surrounding areas tends to produce a similar pollen mix overall.
For Alivio Tourist Park, woodland eucalypt and wattle pick up the pace next, through late winter into spring, typically landing in August and September. By late spring, grass pollen is climbing steadily toward a November high point, with levels staying elevated into the new year before finally easing off. Daily pollen counts published for the wider region track this same seasonal rhythm closely.

Does pollen in O'Connor 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 O'Connor 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 O'Connor, 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. |
