Very Low Pollen in Bushwick, NY

About pollen in Bushwick

Pollen levels across Bushwick remain quiet today. Both tree and weed sources are running very low, and most people should be able to go about their day without much notice. Late summer typically brings a lull like this, well past the tree pollen season and just ahead of the fall weed surge. Looking ahead, tree pollen is expected to stay minimal through the next several days, which makes sense given that local trees such as Taxodium, Plane, Honeylocust, Pyrus, and Ash have already finished their main pollen release for the year. Weed pollen should also hold steady at low levels, with a slight uptick possible midweek as ragweed activity begins its gradual climb heading into early fall. Overall, conditions look mild and manageable for the foreseeable future.
