Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around Fox Lake Township is farmland, with some open grassland. Close to Fox Lake, lakeside vegetation adds to local tree pollen. Around here, open grassland and farmland add grass and weed pollen. Field margins, fallow strips and pasture around the farmland add further grass and weed pollen.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in mid-spring. Then come the grasses, strongest in late spring and fading by early fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Warm, damp weather through summer also raises mold spore levels. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.

Are pollen levels in Fox Lake Township 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 Fox Lake Township, 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 pollen scores represent risk levels, not direct pollen measurements. Higher scores indicate higher risk.
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. |
