Local Environmental Conditions
The center of Toowong sits among a blend of built-up land and woodland. Close to running water, riverside vegetation contributes to what is in the air. Woodland on all sides makes trees an important local pollen source. Grass pollen is plentiful, while pigweed and plantain lead among the weeds. Around here, street trees, parks and lawns are the main sources in the built-up parts.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in early spring. Grass pollen follows, peaking in early spring and easing off by mid-fall. Later, pigweed and plantain keep weed pollen in the air from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in fall, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels. Weather shapes each of these periods: dry, windy spells drive levels up, and showers wash pollen out of the air.

How often is the Toowong pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Toowong 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 Toowong 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 Toowong, 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. |
