Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Edwards is surrounded mainly by open grassland, which covers around 50% of the nearby area, with a good deal of woodland. Trees are an important local pollen source, given how much woodland surrounds the area. Grasses add a sizeable share of the local pollen. Grasses along roadsides, verges and open ground also add to the overall pollen load.
Over the course of the year, woodland and street trees lead off, with tree pollen peaking around early summer. Grasses take over, peaking around late summer and fading by mid-fall. A smaller weed peak follows from midsummer into mid-fall, from plants on verges and waste ground. Here, winters average well below freezing, around -15°C and summers around 15°C, with rain spread fairly evenly through the year.

Does pollen in Edwards 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 Edwards 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 Edwards, 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.
