Local Environmental Conditions
The center of The Gardens sits among a blend of built-up land and woodland, plus some open grassland. A stream or river nearby means riverside vegetation is part of the local pollen picture. Trees are an important local pollen source, given how much woodland surrounds the area. Beyond the trees, grasses matter a great deal, and pigweed is the main weed source.
With warm weather all year, between about 25°C and 30°C, pollen is present in most months rather than in one short season. The drier stretch around June to August usually brings the most pollen. During the rainy season, frequent heavy downpours wash much of the pollen out of the air. Warm, damp weather from early summer into mid-fall also raises mold spore levels.

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