Local Environmental Conditions
The heart of Buckingham sits among a blend of woodland and built-up land, plus some open water. Along a stream or river nearby, trees such as willow and poplar grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Of the allergenic trees nearby, poplar matters most, while ash and maple also contribute. Ragweed is the main local weed pollen source.
Poplar, ash and maple lead the season in mid-spring, as temperatures climb to around 5°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. The season closes with ragweed from late summer into mid-fall. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around freezing, pollen levels are low again. Dry, sunny and breezy weather raises levels within each period, and steady rain brings them down.

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