Local Environmental Conditions
Around 65% of the area near this part of Strathfield Municipal Council is built-up land, with some woodland. Of the trees nearby, plane tree and olive are the ones that matter most for allergies. Grasses and weeds such as pigweed and plantain round out the local mix. Compared with most places, olive is especially widespread here, which makes it one of the key local allergens.
Tree pollen peaks in early spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and plane tree and olive are in full flower. Grass pollen follows, peaking in mid-spring and easing off by mid-fall. Later, pigweed and plantain keep weed pollen in the air from early summer into early fall. The olive period in early spring is usually the most intense time of year here.

Does pollen in Strathfield Municipal Council 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 Strathfield Municipal Council 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 Strathfield Municipal Council, 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.
