Dunwoody's DeKalb County Georgia Atlanta suburban setting features loblolly pine, white oak, and maple as the main tree pollen sources, with exposure varying between the wooded residential areas along the Chattahoochee River corridor fringe and the more built-up commercial corridors along Ashford Dunwoody Road. The Dunwoody Nature Center and Nancy Creek corridor provide particularly significant local tree pollen, while the wooded residential character contributes locally significant spring tree pollen concentrations throughout.

Does pollen in Dunwoody 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 Dunwoody 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 Dunwoody, 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.
