Local Environmental Conditions
The area around the center of Stonehaven is a mix of built-up land and woodland, plus some open water. Of the allergenic trees nearby, birch matters most, while maple and ash also contribute. Grasses are a major source, with plantain and pigweed adding to the weed pollen load. In the built-up parts of the area, street trees, gardens and park lawns add to the local mix.
Birch, maple and ash lead the season in late spring, as temperatures climb to around 10°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Then come the grasses, strongest in midsummer and fading by late summer. The season closes with plantain and pigweed from late spring into late summer. Rain is heaviest in fall, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.

Does pollen in Stonehaven 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 Stonehaven 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 Stonehaven, 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. |
