Local Environmental Conditions
River oak lines the bank, contributing some of the season's more persistent wind-borne pollen, nearby. This area, within the neighborhood's edge, has woodland where eucalypt stands alongside wattle, the latter especially aggressive as an allergen when in full flower. Small shifts in elevation or soil type can move these figures a little either way.
Around Orbost Golf Course, eucalypt and wattle in the woods pick up where river oak leaves off, cresting around August and September in the year's sharpest tree-pollen spike. Along the waterway, river oak releases pollen first, building through the depths of winter into September. By late spring, grass pollen is climbing steadily toward a November high point, before staying elevated through the summer months into late January.

How often is the Orbost pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Orbost 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 Orbost 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 Orbost, 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. |
