Heatherlea — Hazel and willow thrive along the damp bank, both prolific early wind-pollinators; this sits some 276 meters to the edge of the area. Here, right nearby, about 199m away, a nearby park's turf and ornamental trees layer grass and ragweed pollen onto the seasonal mix. Small shifts in elevation or soil type can move these figures a little either way.

Does pollen in Palatine 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 Palatine 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 Palatine, 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.
