Local Environmental Conditions
Most of the area around this site in Highlands-Baywood Park is woodland, with some open grassland. The damp ground beside running water nearby supports trees such as willow and alder, adding to local pollen. Of the trees nearby, maple, oak and alder are the ones that matter most for allergies. Grasses are a major source, with plantain and mugwort adding to the weed pollen load.
Alder opens the pollen season in mid-spring. Tree pollen peaks in late spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and maple and oak are in full flower. Grasses take over in early fall and keep pollen in the air into mid-fall. Plantain and mugwort bring a final peak from early summer into mid-fall. Winter is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

How often is the Highlands-Baywood Park pollen forecast updated?
The Highlands-Baywood Park pollen forecast is updated four times daily. See the timestamp below for the most recent update.
Does pollen in Highlands-Baywood Park 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 Highlands-Baywood Park 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 Highlands-Baywood Park, 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. |
