Local Environmental Conditions
Here, within the neighborhood, the riverbank shelters river oak, whose pollen spreads readily on the wind from spring onward. Here, within the neighborhood's edge, woodland dominated by eucalypt and wattle, with wattle the more potent allergen of the two. Here, within the neighborhood's edge, a green space of mown lawn and planted plane trees, both feeding into local pollen counts.
Water-edge river oak is usually the first allergenic tree active here, usually the first pollen source active, peaking sometime in July or August. Eucalypt and wattle in the nearby woodland follow through late winter and early spring, usually hitting its highest point sometime between mid-August and mid-September. Through spring, grass pollen climbs steadily toward its November peak, holding through the summer months before tapering off by late February.

How often is the Paddington pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Paddington 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 Paddington 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 Paddington, 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. |
