Local Environmental Conditions
Hazel and willow thrive along the damp bank, both prolific early wind-pollinators; this sits in the wider area. Located just around the area, this area has a canopy of oak and birch, birch chief among them for allergenic potency here. Nearby, in the wider area, grass and ornamental trees within the park boundary contribute modestly to grass and ragweed levels.
Hazel and willow near the water open the pollen calendar early, climbing steadily from late winter into March. Oak and birch nearby take over the pollen calendar through mid-spring, typically landing in April and May. Moving into early summer, grass pollen climbs to its seasonal high in June, then yields to ragweed, the dominant late-summer and fall allergen through October.

Does pollen in Mississauga 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 Mississauga 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 Mississauga, 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. |
