Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this location in Arlington is built-up land, with some open grassland and woodland. The damp ground beside a stream or river nearby supports trees such as willow and poplar, adding to local pollen. Of the allergenic trees nearby, oak matters most, while elm and juniper also contribute. Grass pollen is plentiful, while ragweed leads among the weeds.
First to flower are elm and juniper, in midwinter. Tree pollen peaks in early spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak is in full flower. Grasses take over in mid-spring and keep pollen in the air into early fall. Later, ragweed keeps weed pollen in the air from late summer into mid-fall.

Does pollen in Arlington 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 Arlington 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 Arlington, 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.

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. |
