Local Environmental Conditions
This part of Samford Valley is surrounded mainly by woodland, which covers around 84% of the nearby area. With a stream or river close by, riverside vegetation contributes to the local mix. With this much woodland around, trees are an important local pollen source. Grass pollen is plentiful, while pigweed leads among the weeds.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. Grass pollen follows, peaking in early spring and easing off by mid-fall. The season closes with pigweed from early summer into early fall. Fall is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Samford Valley, 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.

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. |
