Low Pollen in Bridgeport, CT

About pollen in Bridgeport

Weed pollen is the main contributor to the air in Bridgeport today, though it remains at a low level overall. Tree pollen is essentially quiet at this point in the season. Most people should get through the day without much irritation, though those especially sensitive to weed pollen may notice mild symptoms during outdoor activities. Looking ahead, this pattern should hold steady through the next several days, with weed pollen staying in the low range and tree pollen continuing to be a non-issue. This is typical for mid-August, as species like oak, maple, and birch have long finished releasing pollen for the year, while ragweed and other late-summer weeds are just beginning their gradual rise toward the more active stretch that typically arrives in the coming weeks.
