Local Environmental Conditions
HBF Park sits in Perth's inner suburb of Leederville, its turf pitch bordered by suburban streets planted with eucalypts and Mediterranean-climate ornamentals typical of the Swan Coastal Plain, with limited remnant bushland given the ground's built-up setting. Local pollen levels typically peak in spring as grasses flower ahead of the dry Mediterranean summer, following an earlier wattle season through the cooler, wetter winter months.
Sitting close to the CBD, HBF Park experiences Perth's pollen season much like the rest of the inner city: a mild, wet winter loosens its grip by August, when tree pollen from street trees and nearby eucalypts begins circulating, intensifying into September. Grass pollen from surrounding parks, verges and sports turf then takes over, peaking in October and November, before the onset of Perth's long, dry summer cuts pollen levels sharply, delivering a shorter season than northern subtropical rivals.

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