Local Environmental Conditions
This area, within easy reach, has river oak thrives along the damp bank, a classic riparian wind-pollinator in this part of Australia. Woodland dominated by eucalypt and wattle, with wattle the more potent allergen of the two; this sits within the neighborhood's edge. Maintained parkland where turf grass and ornamental plane trees add to the local pollen mix; this sits a short distance from here.
At Shoalhaven Heads Golf Course, water-edge river oak is usually the first allergenic tree active here, peaking in mid-winter through September. Eucalypt and wattle nearby take over the pollen calendar through late winter, reaching its high point through August and into October. Grass pollen takes over next, building to a peak around November, then holding at a high level well into January before easing off.

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. |
