New Concord lies in the unglaciated hill country of southeastern Ohio, not far from the Hocking River and Hocking Hills area woodlands. The surrounding landscape is dominated by Appalachian oak-hickory forest and pasture edge. The Hocking River winds through the wider area, its banks favoring moisture-loving trees such as willow and alder.

Does pollen in New Concord 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 Concord 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 Concord, 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.
