Local Environmental Conditions
The landscape around the heart of Shire of Wellington is largely open grassland, with some woodland. Woodland on all sides makes trees an important local pollen source. Grass pollen is plentiful, while pigweed leads among the weeds. Roadside verges and patches of open ground provide further room for grasses and weeds.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. Then come the grasses, strongest in early summer and fading by early fall. Pigweed brings a final peak from early summer into early fall. Spring is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Does pollen in Shire of Wellington come from nearby or far away?

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 Shire of Wellington 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 Shire of Wellington, 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. |
