Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around Sherwood Park is built-up land, with a good deal of open grassland and some woodland. Lawns and planted trees in a nearby park add to local grass and tree pollen. Common allergenic trees nearby include maple, poplar and willow. Grasses also feature strongly, alongside mugwort among the weeds.
Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 5°C and maple, poplar and willow are in full flower. Then come the grasses, strongest in early summer and fading by midsummer. Later, mugwort keeps weed pollen in the air from midsummer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in summer, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.

How often is the Sherwood Park pollen forecast updated?
The Sherwood Park pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Sherwood Park 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 Sherwood Park 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 Sherwood Park, 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.
Airmine’s atmospheric monitoring platform was developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team, using satellite and Earth observation technologies to improve emissions monitoring.
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. |
