Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Southern Downs Regional is largely open grassland. With a watercourse close by, riverside vegetation contributes to the local mix. Grasses are also a significant pollen source here. Grasses along roadsides, verges and open ground also add to the overall pollen load. Wind carries pollen over long distances, so the wider landscape also shapes what arrives here.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grasses take over in mid-spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. A smaller weed peak follows from early summer into early fall. Warm, damp weather from midsummer into mid-fall also raises mold spore levels. Weather shapes each of these periods: dry, windy spells drive levels up, and showers wash pollen out of the air.

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. |
