Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this site in Thabazimbi is scrubland, with a good deal of woodland. A nearby park adds mown lawns and planted trees to the local pollen mix. Around here, the woodland makes trees an important source; scrubland contributes pollen from shrubs, grasses and herbs. Roadside verges and patches of open ground provide further room for grasses and weeds.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in late winter. Grasses take over in early spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. A smaller weed peak follows from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in summer, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels. Within each of these periods, warm, dry and windy days push levels higher, while rain clears the air.

Does pollen in Thabazimbi 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 Thabazimbi 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 Thabazimbi, 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.
