Local Environmental Conditions
Bandon Dunes Golf Resort's Oregon coast setting features coastal grasses, shore pine, and gorse as the main pollen sources across the Bandon Dunes Course, with exposure varying between the exposed Pacific Ocean-facing clifftop holes and the more sheltered inland sections. The Pacific Ocean position means strong onshore winds frequently disperse pollen, while the very wet Oregon coast climate provides very frequent rainfall interruptions throughout the long spring and summer season.
Coos Bay's regional pollen pattern holds at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort – Bandon Dunes Course, with alder and birch first appearing in February then maple follows, running through March and April. Peak grass pollen arrives in May and June, and dock and mugwort keep weed pollen elevated into September. Frequent spring rain across the Pacific Northwest periodically clears pollen from the air, moderating peak counts throughout the year.

Does pollen in Coos Bay 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 Coos Bay 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 Coos Bay, 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 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
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. |
