Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Bastrop is surrounded mainly by woodland, with some built-up land and open grassland. Along running water nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Oak, maple and elm are among the allergenic trees nearby. Grasses also feature strongly, alongside ragweed among the weeds.
The pollen year starts with maple and elm, active from midwinter into early spring. Tree pollen then builds as oak flowers, peaking around early spring. Grasses take over, peaking around late spring and fading by late summer. Ragweed brings a later peak from late summer into mid-fall. Winters average around 10°C and summers around 30°C, with rain spread fairly evenly through the year.

Does pollen in Bastrop 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 Bastrop 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 Bastrop, 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.
