Low Pollen in Boyle Heights, CA

About pollen in Boyle Heights

Grass pollen is the main driver in Boyle Heights today, sitting at a Low level (2 on the index), while overall pollen also registers Low. Tree pollen reads None right now, so local species like Melia, Persea, Ceratonia, Chionanthus, and Plane are contributing little to nothing to the air at the moment. The five-day outlook holds grass steady at the same Low level, with no notable rises or dips expected over that stretch. This tracks with the season, as grasses tend to be the dominant source through late spring and early summer once the main tree pollen window has passed. Weed pollen has no data to report today.
