Local Environmental Conditions
Here, a short distance from here, the nearest stream or river hosts hazel and willow, two of the most allergenic early-season trees. Located nearby, this area has woodland dominated by oak and birch, with birch a leading regional tree-pollen allergen. Surrounding neighborhoods with similar tree cover typically see a closely comparable pollen mix.
Near the bank, hazel and willow lead the seasonal calendar, leading off the pollen calendar, with a peak generally falling in late winter. Oak and birch in the woodland come next, through the heart of spring, reaching its high point through April and into May. Late spring brings rising grass pollen that crests in June, then gives way to ragweed, which drives the season's second major surge from mid-August into October.

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. |
