Local Environmental Conditions
Thistledew Campground and Day-Use Area is surrounded mainly by woodland, which covers around 80% of the nearby area, with some open water. Around here, the surrounding woods make trees an important source. Clearings, tracks and woodland edges let grasses and other flowering plants grow among the trees. Much of the pollen in dense woodland is released high in the canopy, where the wind carries it easily.
Flowering trees bring the first pollen of the year in late spring. Grasses take over in early summer and keep pollen in the air into late summer. Summer is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen. By late fall, as temperatures fall to a few degrees below freezing, pollen levels are low again.
