Local Environmental Conditions
Here, in the vicinity, a stretch of hazel and willow lines the water, feeding some of spring's earliest pollen. Oak and birch make up the bulk of this woodland, birch being the more potent allergen of the two, in the wider area. Located a short distance from here, this area has the park's turf and planted trees form a small but steady source of grass and ragweed pollen.
The waterside hazel and willow are consistently first to release pollen each year, building through the tail end of winter into March. As spring advances, oak and birch in the nearby woodland become the dominant source, peaking in the heart of spring, generally April into May. Grass pollen counts rise through late spring, reaching their peak around June, followed by ragweed's own peak stretch from mid-August into October.

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