Local Environmental Conditions
The heart of Raywood is surrounded mainly by open grassland, which covers around 64% of the nearby area, with some farmland. Close to running water, riverside vegetation contributes to what is in the air. There is plenty of grass pollen here too. Grasses along roadsides, verges and open ground also add to the overall pollen load.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. Then come the grasses, strongest in late spring and fading by early fall. A smaller weed peak follows from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in spring, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels. Actual levels on any given day depend on the weather, with dry, breezy days the worst and wet days the mildest.

How often is the Raywood pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Raywood 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 Raywood 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 Raywood, 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 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
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. |
