Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this location in Port Macquarie is built-up land, with a good deal of woodland and some open grassland. Lawns and planted trees in a nearby park add to local grass and tree pollen. So much tree cover makes trees an important source of pollen locally. Beyond the trees, grasses matter a great deal, and pigweed and plantain are the main weed sources.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grasses take over in early spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into mid-fall. The season closes with pigweed and plantain from early summer into early fall. Warm, humid weather keeps mold spores around for most of the year as well.

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 Port Macquarie 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 Port Macquarie, 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.
