Local Environmental Conditions
This area, within the neighborhood's edge, has a waterway supports hazel and willow along its bank, both strongly allergenic wind-pollinated species. Forest where oak and birch make up much of the canopy, driving spring pollen counts; this sits within easy reach. This park's mix of turf and landscaped trees contributes a modest grass and ragweed pollen load, in the wider area.
Hazel and willow by the water are typically first out of the gate, climbing steadily from late winter into March. The area's oak and birch trees pollinate through mid-to-late spring, reaching maximum intensity across the April-May window. Grass pollen counts rise through late spring, reaching their peak around June, before ragweed becomes the more dominant allergen from mid-August into October.

Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in West Bend 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 West Bend, 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. |
