Local Environmental Conditions
This area, just outside the immediate area, has the waterway's edge supports river oak, a species whose fine pollen travels well beyond the immediate bank. A mix of eucalypt and wattle, wattle in particular a notorious trigger for hay fever across southern Australia, in the wider area. Here, near this part of town, maintained parkland where turf grass and ornamental plane trees add to the local pollen mix.
River oak along the water gets the season underway before other species, usually peaking sometime between July and September. As spring approaches, eucalypt and wattle in the nearby woodland become the dominant source, usually peaking from August into October. Grass pollen becomes the dominant allergen through spring, peaking in November, then persisting at a reduced but still meaningful level into the new year.

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 Tamborine Mountain 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 Tamborine Mountain, 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 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. |
