Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this location in Silvan is woodland, with a good deal of open water. Close to the Silvan Reservoir, lakeside vegetation adds to local tree pollen. Maple stands out as the main allergenic tree nearby. Beyond the trees, grasses matter a great deal, and plantain is the main weed source.
Tree pollen peaks in early spring, when the weather warms to around 10°C and maple is in full flower. Grasses take over in early summer, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Plantain flowers through much of the warmer half of the year. Spring is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Does pollen in Silvan 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 Silvan 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 Silvan, 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. |
