Local Environmental Conditions
The heart of Beale Air Force Base is largely open grassland, with some built-up land. A nearby park adds mown lawns and planted trees to the local pollen mix. Of the trees nearby, oak is the one that matters most for allergies. Grass pollen adds noticeably to the overall load.
Oak leads the season in mid-spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Winter is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Beale Air Force Base 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 Beale Air Force Base, 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. |
