Taylor Glen — Here, just 222m from here, a waterway supports hazel and willow along its bank, both strongly allergenic wind-pollinated species. A park whose lawns and ornamental trees quietly add to grass and ragweed pollen levels; this sits not far off, about 301m out. Ground-level conditions like local landscaping can nudge these figures slightly either way.

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 Lenox 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 Lenox, 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.
