Local Environmental Conditions
Frampton Cotterell's parks and green spaces feature oak and beech as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between these greener areas and the more built-up town centre. Fields and hedgerows just outside town push grass pollen counts up noticeably once northwesterly winds off the coast set in. Locals with allergies tend to plan around two peaks a year rather than one long stretch.
Locals in Frampton Cotterell usually notice oak first, with beech not far behind it. Oak pollen typically runs from April to May, while beech follows on from April to May. On top of that, grass pollen runs May to September and tends to hit hardest in June and July. Worth keeping an eye on the forecast if you're sensitive.

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. |
