Local Environmental Conditions
Around 39% of the area near the heart of Erskine is woodland, with a good deal of open grassland and some built-up land. Birch, oak and willow are among the allergenic trees nearby. Grass pollen is significant here, and plantain and mugwort contribute weed pollen. In the built-up parts of the area, street trees, gardens and park lawns add to the local mix.
Birch, oak and willow lead the season in late spring, as temperatures climb to around 10°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in midsummer, with temperatures around 15°C, and their pollen lingers into late summer. Later, plantain and mugwort keep weed pollen in the air from late spring into late summer. By late fall, pollen levels are low again.

Does pollen in Erskine 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 Erskine 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 Erskine, 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. |
