Local Environmental Conditions
Around Wollaton Park, oak and birch are the dominant species behind local tree pollen, with counts higher near parks than in the centre. The wider Nottingham countryside supplies additional tree and grass pollen, particularly when inland breezes from the surrounding countryside carry it toward the built-up area. Locals with allergies tend to plan around two peaks a year rather than one long stretch.
Pollen season in Wollaton Park really gets going with oak, followed not long after by birch. Oak pollen typically runs from April to May, with birch picking up between March and May. Grass pollen then stretches from May into September, with the worst of it typically landing in June and July. Useful to know if you tend to feel it every spring.

Does pollen in Nottingham 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 Nottingham 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 Nottingham, 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 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. |
