Local Environmental Conditions
Here, close to this spot, hazel and willow line the water's edge, releasing pollen that carries easily on the wind. The broader area tends to mirror this pattern, with only minor local variation. Seasonal timing here generally tracks the wider region, give or take a week or so. Surrounding neighborhoods with similar tree cover typically see a closely comparable pollen mix.
The waterside hazel and willow are consistently first to release pollen each year, usually the first pollen source active, peaking sometime in February or March. Grass pollen builds through late spring and peaks 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 Tinicum Township 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 Tinicum Township 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 Tinicum Township, 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. |
