Low Pollen in Borough Park, NY

About pollen in Borough Park

Grass pollen is the main concern in Borough Park today, sitting at a moderate level (3) and driving an overall moderate reading. Tree pollen has dropped off entirely, registering none, so the area's familiar trees like Linden, Oak, Maple, Prunus, and Pyrus aren't contributing right now. The forecast points to a slight easing ahead, with grass slipping from moderate today to a steadier low-moderate (2) over the next several days. This fits the season, as grass typically peaks in late spring and early summer while the spring tree surge winds down. Weed pollen data isn't available at this time.
