Local Environmental Conditions
Hazel and willow take root along the waterway, both prolific contributors to early pollen counts, near this part of town. Local wind exposure and land use can shift the exact mix slightly from block to block. Actual counts still shift year to year with temperature, rainfall, and prevailing wind. Local readings for the surrounding area tend to follow this same general pattern.
The water-adjacent hazel and willow are early risers, getting an early start, typically cresting between February and March. Late spring sees grass pollen build steadily toward a peak in June, then yields to ragweed, the dominant late-summer and fall allergen through October. Warmer or wetter years can pull these peaks a week or two earlier or later.

Does pollen in Silver Oaks Golf Club come from nearby or far away?

Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Silver Oaks Golf Club 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 Oaks Golf Club, 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. |
