Low Pollen in Bushwick, NY

About pollen in Bushwick

Pollen sits in the low range across Bushwick today, with overall, tree, and grass all registering a 2 on the index. Grass is the steadier presence here, and the five-day forecast holds it flat at low through the period, so expect little change in the days ahead. Tree pollen also reads low, in keeping with late June, when the spring surge from oak, honeylocust, plane, ash, and carpinus has largely tapered off. Grass typically takes over as the main driver this time of year, which matches what the numbers show. Ragweed and other weeds aren't reflected in today's data and tend to factor in later, toward the end of summer.
