Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around the center of Auburn is built-up land, with a good deal of woodland. With Chewacla Creek nearby, riverside trees such as plane tree along its banks contribute to the local mix. Oak is the most prominent allergenic tree nearby, with maple also present. Grass pollen is plentiful, while ragweed and plantain lead among the weeds.
Oak and maple lead the season in early spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in late spring and keep pollen in the air into early fall. Later, ragweed and plantain keep weed pollen in the air from late summer into mid-fall. By midwinter, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.
