Local Environmental Conditions
The riverbank shelters hazel and willow, two trees whose pollen travels readily on the breeze; this sits about 400 meters off. This area, within 50m of this spot, has the tree cover here leans heavily on oak and birch, both key drivers of spring pollen. Ground-level conditions like local landscaping can nudge these figures slightly either way.
Water-edge hazel and willow are usually the first allergenic trees active here, topping out well before most other trees start releasing pollen, around February and March. Oak and birch nearby take over the pollen calendar through mid-spring, building to its sharpest point across April and May. Grass pollen builds through late spring and peaks in June, before ragweed becomes the more dominant allergen from mid-August into October.

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. |
