Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this site in Wrightwood is mostly scrubland, with some woodland. Of the allergenic trees nearby, oak matters most, while alder also contributes. Grasses and weeds such as mugwort round out the local mix. Locally, scrubland contributes pollen from shrubs, grasses and herbs. Roadside verges and patches of open ground provide further room for grasses and weeds.
Alder opens the pollen season in late winter. Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak is in full flower. Grass pollen follows, peaking in late spring and easing off by early fall. The season closes with mugwort through summer. Winter is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.

Does pollen in Wrightwood 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 Wrightwood 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 Wrightwood, 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.
