Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this site in Lucerne is a mix of woodland and open grassland. Along a watercourse nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Allergenic trees nearby include oak. Grasses are also a significant pollen source here. Grasses along roadsides, verges and open ground also add to the overall pollen load.
Through the seasons, tree pollen comes first, with oak in flower from early spring into mid-spring. Grasses take over, peaking around late spring and fading by midsummer. Weeds take the season into its final stretch, adding modest amounts of pollen from early summer into early fall. Locally, temperatures range from around 5°C in the coldest month to around 30°C in the warmest, with most rain falling in the cooler months.

Does pollen in Lucerne 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 Lucerne 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 Lucerne, 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. |
