Local Environmental Conditions
Mountain Home sits among a blend of built-up land and woodland, plus some open grassland. Along a lake or pond nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. The surrounding woodland makes trees an important local pollen source. Grass pollen is a substantial part of the local mix as well.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in mid-spring. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in spring, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels. By early winter, as temperatures fall to around 5°C, pollen levels are low again.
