Local Environmental Conditions
Hazel and willow crowd the water's edge, both classic sources of early allergenic pollen, not far from here. Located within the neighborhood, this area has oak and birch trees, with birch pollen especially potent during its brief spring window. The park's turf and planted trees form a small but steady source of grass and ragweed pollen; this sits nearby.
Hazel and willow by the water are typically first out of the gate, peaking in late winter through March. Oak and birch nearby take over the pollen calendar through mid-spring, cresting around April and May in the year's sharpest tree-pollen spike. Moving into early summer, grass pollen climbs to its seasonal high in June, then yields to ragweed, the dominant late-summer and fall allergen through October.

Does pollen in Lyons Township come from nearby or far away?

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 Lyons 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 Lyons 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 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. |
