Local Environmental Conditions
The center of New Tecumseth is surrounded mainly by farmland, with some woodland and open grassland. The allergenic tree mix nearby includes maple, oak and poplar. Beyond the trees, grasses matter a great deal, and ragweed and plantain are the main weed sources. Pasture and uncultivated field edges in the farmland provide room for grasses and weeds.
Maple, oak and poplar lead the season in mid-spring, as temperatures climb to around 5°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Then come the grasses, strongest in early summer and fading by late summer. Ragweed and plantain bring a final peak from late summer into mid-fall. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.

Does pollen in New Tecumseth 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 New Tecumseth 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 New Tecumseth, 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. |
