Local Environmental Conditions
Built-up land and open water share the area around this site in Tamarama, plus some woodland. With running water close by, riverside trees such as plane tree contribute to the local mix. Olive heads the list of allergenic trees nearby, ahead of plane tree. Grasses are a major source, with plantain and pellitory adding to the weed pollen load.
Olive and plane tree lead the season in early spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in mid-spring and keep pollen in the air into mid-fall. Plantain and pellitory flower through much of the warmer half of the year. Mold spores join in from midsummer into early fall, when damp, warm spells let them thrive.

How often is the Tamarama pollen forecast updated?
The Tamarama pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Tamarama 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 Tamarama 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 Tamarama, 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. |
