Local Environmental Conditions
This area, within the neighborhood, has river oak crowds the water's edge here, a well-known contributor to local casuarina pollen counts. Seasonal timing here generally tracks the wider region, give or take a week or so. Surrounding neighborhoods with similar tree cover typically see a closely comparable pollen mix. As with most local readings, actual levels can vary somewhat with short-term weather swings.
River oak along the water gets the season underway before other species, peaking in mid-winter through September. Spring brings rising grass pollen that crests in November, before pollen counts gradually decline through January and February. Local weather swings can shift these windows slightly, but the overall order tends to hold.

How often is the Pelican Waters pollen forecast updated?
The Pelican Waters pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Pelican Waters 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 Pelican Waters 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 Pelican Waters, 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. |
