About pollen in Cary

Grass pollen is the only type registering in Cary today, and it remains at a very low level. Most people, including those with grass allergies, should notice little to no irritation. Overall, this is an easy day for anyone sensitive to pollen. Looking ahead, grass levels are expected to stay low through the next several days, so no significant change is on the horizon. This lull fits the season, as the heavy tree pollen from oaks, pines, and other regional species peaked back in spring, and the grass surge of late spring has largely settled down. The next pollen type to watch will be ragweed, which typically becomes more active as summer gives way to fall.
