Very Low Pollen in Arlington, TX

About pollen in Arlington

Pollen levels in Arlington remain quiet today. Grass is the only type showing any activity, and even that is at a very low level, unlikely to cause much trouble for most people. Tree pollen is absent altogether, so those sensitive to sources like oak, elm, or hickory should find little to worry about right now. Looking ahead, this calm pattern is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with grass staying low and tree pollen remaining out of the picture. This lull fits the season, as area trees such as hickory, oak, elm, cercis, and liquidambar finished their peak release back in spring, and grass pollen typically eases as summer progresses. With ragweed season still weeks away, this is a comfortable stretch for most allergy sufferers in the area.
