ENVIRONMENT & ANALYSIS

Local Environmental Conditions

Secret Harbour sits on the coastal plain south of Perth, where banksia woodland on deep sandy soils meets newer suburban development; coastal heath and dune vegetation front the beach, with tuart and marri among the notable remnant eucalypts. 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.

Secret Harbour, in Perth's southern coastal corridor, follows Western Australia's compressed Mediterranean pollen season, concentrated roughly from August to November before the long dry summer arrives. Coastal dune vegetation, including banksia and casuarina, contributes tree pollen from late winter, while grass pollen from parks, reserves and surrounding pasture peaks through spring. Ocean breezes typically keep pollen counts a little lower here than in suburbs further from the coast, though warm easterly winds off the drier inland can occasionally push levels up.

Coastal dune vegetation, including banksia and casuarina, contributes tree pollen from late winter, while grass pollen from parks, reserves and surrounding pasture peaks through spring.

How often is the Secret Harbour pollen forecast updated?

The Secret Harbour pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.

Does pollen in Secret Harbour 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 Secret Harbour 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 Secret Harbour, 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.

Methodology & Technology

Our forecasts utilize high-resolution satellite imagery from the Copernicus Sentinel-5P mission combined with a proprietary network of ground-based IoT sensors. Pollen forecasts are calculated by Airmine using satellites to map local vegetation and determine pollen season onset in a statistical prediction model, updated four times daily.
