As spring advances, oak and birch in the nearby woodland become the dominant source, typically the year's sharpest tree-pollen spell, centered on April and May. Through late spring, grass pollen climbs steadily toward its June peak, before ragweed becomes the more dominant allergen from mid-August into October.

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. |
