Local Environmental Conditions
Ncome Museum lies roughly 200 km north-northwest of Durban. Acacia thornveld, eucalyptus, and rolling Natal grassland dominate the vegetation around Ncome Museum, with exposure varying between planted residential greenery and more open surrounding farmland. The area's dairy and forestry farming operations adds to a landscape shaped by the Midlands' cooler, elevated climate, consistent with the wider KwaZulu-Natal Midlands landscape that shapes daily exposure across the wider Midlands district.
Ncome Museum's KwaZulu-Natal Midlands season opens in August with acacia thornveld and eucalyptus before grass from the surrounding grassland and farmland peaks through November and December. The dry Highveld-style winter, together with dairy and forestry farming operations nearby, suppresses pollen until the summer rains take hold, a pattern typical of the wider KwaZulu-Natal Midlands region.

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