Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Crane Lake Township sits among a blend of open water and woodland. With Crane Lake nearby, lakeside vegetation along its shore contributes to the local mix. With much of the immediate area made up of open water, local pollen production is limited, though pollen can still drift in from surrounding land. Locally, the surrounding woods make trees an important source.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in late spring. Grasses take over in early summer, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into late summer. Rain is heaviest in summer, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels. By late fall, as temperatures fall to a few degrees below freezing, pollen levels are low again.
