Local Environmental Conditions
Here, immediately nearby, about 200-300 meters off, the riverbank shelters hazel and willow, two trees whose pollen travels readily on the breeze. Located just over 100 meters from the neighborhood, this area has this park's mix of turf and landscaped trees contributes a modest grass and ragweed pollen load. The general pattern described here holds fairly steady across nearby areas with similar land cover.
The bank's hazel and willow kick off the pollen season ahead of the rest, usually peaking sometime between late winter and the end of March. Grass pollen climbs toward a June peak, followed by ragweed's own peak stretch from mid-August into October. Actual peak timing can drift earlier or later depending on how the season's weather plays out.

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 Park Township based on measurements or forecasts?
Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.

This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.

Understanding the Scale
The 0–100 scores represent risk levels, not direct measurements of pollen or air pollutant concentrations. Higher scores indicate higher risk. Pollen and air quality use different thresholds.
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. |
