Local Environmental Conditions
Around 51% of the area near the heart of New Brighton is woodland, with some built-up land and open water. The damp ground beside running water nearby supports trees such as poplar, adding to local pollen. Among allergenic trees nearby, maple leads, followed by mulberry and oak. Beyond the trees, grasses matter a great deal, and ragweed and mugwort are the main weed sources.
Maple, mulberry and oak lead the season in mid-spring, as temperatures climb to around 5°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in early summer, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Later, ragweed and mugwort keep weed pollen in the air from late summer into mid-fall. Summer is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Does pollen in New Brighton 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 New Brighton 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 New Brighton, 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. |
