Local Environmental Conditions
This area, not far from here, has the water's edge is thick with hazel and willow, whose pollen spreads readily in early spring. Ground-level conditions like local landscaping can nudge these figures slightly either way. Nearby weather stations report comparable trends across the broader stretch of the county. Small shifts in elevation or soil type can move these figures a little either way.
Hazel and willow near the water open the pollen calendar early, usually the first pollen source active, peaking sometime in February or March. Grass pollen climbs toward a June peak, with ragweed climbing to its own high point from mid-August through October. The overall order of species tends to hold steady, even as exact dates shift slightly each year.

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. |
