Local Environmental Conditions
The area around the heart of Kenton-on-Sea is mostly open water, with some woodland. With much of the immediate area made up of open water, local pollen production is limited, though pollen can still drift in from surrounding land. Olive is among the allergenic trees in the wider area. Grasses, pigweed and plantain growing in the surroundings are the main non-tree sources of pollen.
Tree pollen peaks in early spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and olive is in full flower. Grass pollen follows, peaking in mid-spring and easing off by mid-fall. The season closes with pigweed and plantain from early summer into early fall. Day to day, sunshine and wind lift the counts, while a spell of rain can bring them down sharply.

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