Local Environmental Conditions
This location in Melbourne is surrounded mainly by open water, with a good deal of built-up land and some woodland. A nearby park adds mown lawns and planted trees to the local pollen mix. Oak is the most prominent allergenic tree nearby. Grass pollen is plentiful, while pigweed leads among the weeds.
Tree pollen peaks in early spring, when the weather warms to around 20°C and oak is in full flower. Then come the grasses, strongest in mid-spring and fading by late fall. Pigweed brings a final peak from early summer into early fall. Warm, damp weather from early summer into late winter also raises mold spore levels.

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