Local Environmental Conditions
Located near this part of town, this area has river oak lines the bank, contributing some of the season's more persistent wind-borne pollen. Here, just around the area, a canopy of eucalypt threaded with wattle, wattle chief among them for allergenic potency here. The broader area tends to mirror this pattern, with only minor local variation.
Water-edge river oak is usually the first allergenic tree active here, topping out well before most other trees start releasing pollen, around July and August. Eucalypt and wattle in the woods pick up where river oak leaves off, climbing steadily through late winter to a peak in August or September. Grass pollen climbs toward a November peak, then holding at a high level well into January before easing off.

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. |
