Local Environmental Conditions
Around 69% of the area near this site in George is woodland, with some built-up land. Oak heads the list of allergenic trees nearby, ahead of maple. Grass pollen is significant here, and pigweed and plantain contribute weed pollen. Street trees, private gardens and mown lawns add to local pollen in the more built-up surroundings.
Tree pollen peaks in early spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak and maple are in full flower. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Pigweed and plantain bring a final peak from early summer into early fall.

Does pollen in George 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 George 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 George, 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.
