Local Environmental Conditions
Around 96% of the area near this location in Lone Pine is bare ground. Warm Springs keeps the ground around it moist, supporting dense vegetation that adds to local pollen. With much of the immediate area made up of bare ground, local pollen production is limited, though pollen can still drift in from surrounding land.
Across the year, trees are the first to release pollen, with a peak around mid-spring. Grasses take over from mid-spring, with the highest levels around early summer and pollen lingering until late summer. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Locally, winters average around freezing and summers around 20°C, with most rain falling in the cooler months.

How often is the Lone Pine pollen forecast updated?

Does pollen in Lone Pine 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 Lone Pine 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 Lone Pine, 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.
Airmine’s atmospheric monitoring platform was developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team, using satellite and Earth observation technologies to improve emissions monitoring.
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. |
