Local Environmental Conditions

Wattle and casuarina line the water's edge, releasing pollen that carries easily on the wind, in the vicinity. Located near this part of town, this area has woodland where plane tree stands alongside eucalypt, the latter especially aggressive as an allergen. Year-to-year swings in rainfall and wind can shift this picture somewhat either way.

In Humevale, temperatures climbing to 10.8°C by September likely mark the start of the main pollen release, with humidity around 76% helping keep counts airborne. Warmer conditions by December (17.9°C, 65% humidity) sustain grass pollen through the season, before rainfall of 54mm in March and cooling toward 7.9°C in June bring the season to a close.
