Local Environmental Conditions
Nearby, within the neighborhood's edge, hazel and willow line the water's edge, releasing pollen that carries easily on the wind. Located close to home here, this area has woodland where oak stands alongside birch, the latter especially aggressive as an allergen. Here, nearby, this park's mix of turf and landscaped trees contributes a modest grass and ragweed pollen load.
Hazel and willow by the water are typically first out of the gate, leading off the pollen calendar, with a peak generally falling in late winter. The nearby oak and birch stands take the lead as spring progresses, reaching maximum intensity across the April-May window. Grass pollen counts rise through late spring, reaching their peak around June, before ragweed pollen takes center stage across mid-August into October.

Does pollen in Patton Township 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 Patton Township 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 Patton Township, 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.

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. |
