Local Environmental Conditions
This location in West Rockhampton is surrounded mainly by open grassland, with a good deal of built-up land and some woodland. Lawns and planted trees in a nearby park add to local grass and tree pollen. Grass pollen adds noticeably to the overall load. In the built-up parts of the area, street trees, gardens and park lawns add to the local mix.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. Grasses take over in early spring and keep pollen in the air into mid-fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in fall, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.
