About pollen in Cary
Pollen levels in Cary are quiet today, with both tree and weed sources holding at a very low level. Most people should be able to spend time outdoors without much trouble, and those who are sensitive to pollen are unlikely to notice more than a faint trace in the air. Looking ahead, tree pollen is expected to stay very low through the next several days, which fits the season since trees like oak, hickory, and maple already released the bulk of their pollen back in spring. Weed pollen, on the other hand, is likely to inch up from very low to a mild, more noticeable level by midweek — a normal shift as late summer moves toward the start of ragweed season. Sensitive individuals may want to keep an eye on how they feel outdoors as that trend continues.
