Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this location in Oroville East is a mix of open water and woodland, plus some open grassland. The key allergenic tree nearby is oak. Grasses are a major source, with pigweed adding to the weed pollen load. Grasses along roadsides, verges and open ground also add to the overall pollen load.
Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 10°C and oak is in full flower. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 15°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Later, pigweed keeps weed pollen in the air from early summer into early fall. Winter is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

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 Oroville East 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 Oroville East, 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.
