Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this site in Silver Lake is heavily wooded, with some open water. With Silver Lake nearby, lakeside vegetation along its shore contributes to the local mix. With this much woodland around, trees are an important local pollen source. Among weeds, pigweed stands out as local pollen source.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in early spring. The season closes with pigweed from early summer into early fall. Warm, damp weather from early summer into early winter also raises mold spore levels. Dry, sunny and breezy weather raises levels within each period, and steady rain brings them down.

Does pollen in Silver Lake 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 Silver Lake 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 Silver Lake, 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.

| 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. |
