Local Environmental Conditions
This area, within the local area, has the water's edge is thick with hazel and willow, whose pollen spreads readily in early spring. Neighboring areas with similar land cover tend to show a closely matching pollen mix. Year-to-year swings in rainfall and wind can shift this picture somewhat either way.
The water-adjacent hazel and willow are early risers, peaking in late winter through March. As spring turns to summer, grass pollen rises toward its June high, followed by ragweed's own peak stretch from mid-August into October. Daily pollen counts published for the wider region track this same seasonal rhythm closely.

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. |
