The epidemic thunderstorm asthma risk forecasting system will operate between 1 October and 31 December.
It combines the forecasting of a certain uncommon type of thunderstorm and forecasting of grass pollen levels across Victoria.
Risk forecasts are issued twice daily during the grass pollen season (October through December). They cover three consecutive days and use a colour-coded scale: green (low), orange (moderate) and red (high).
