Green space with maintained lawn and planted trees, both contributing to grass and ragweed counts, a short distance from here.
At Town of Shelby, the nearby oak and birch stands take the lead as spring progresses, typically landing in April and May. The waterside hazel and willow are consistently first to release pollen each year, usually peaking sometime between late winter and the end of March. As spring turns to summer, grass pollen rises toward its June high, and ragweed later takes the lead from mid-August through October.

Pollen
| None | 0 | No or negligible risk of exposure. Pollen exposure is expected to be minimal. |
| Low | 0-25 | Low risk of exposure. Small amounts of pollen may be present. |
| Moderate | 25-50 | Moderate risk of exposure. Pollen exposure is expected to be noticeable. |
| High | 50-75 | High risk of exposure. Elevated pollen exposure is expected. |
| Very High | 75-100 | Very high risk of exposure. Pollen exposure is expected to be at or near its highest levels. |
