Local Environmental Conditions
Here, nearby, hazel and willow line the water's edge, releasing pollen that carries easily on the wind. Here, a short distance from here, oak and birch trees, with birch pollen especially potent during its brief spring window. Here, in the wider area, parkland with regularly mown grass and planted trees, both sources of grass and ragweed pollen.
Water-edge hazel and willow are usually the first allergenic trees active here, leading off the pollen calendar, with a peak generally falling in late winter. Further into spring, the area's oak and birch stands drive the pollen count, topping out in the April-to-May stretch. Grass pollen becomes the dominant allergen through late spring, peaking in June, and then ragweed picks up the slack, running from mid-August through October.

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 Waterford 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 Waterford 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 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. |
