Local Environmental Conditions
Here, within the local area, hazel and willow crowd the water's edge, both classic sources of early allergenic pollen. Nearby, not far from here, well-kept lawns and ornamental trees in this park add their share of grass and ragweed pollen. Nearby weather stations report comparable trends across the broader stretch of the county.
The waterside hazel and willow are consistently first to release pollen each year, usually peaking sometime between late winter and the end of March. By late spring, grass pollen is climbing steadily toward a June high point, and then ragweed picks up the slack, running from mid-August through October. Warmer or wetter years can pull these peaks a week or two earlier or later.

Are pollen levels in Village of Chester 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 Village of Chester, 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. |
