About pollen in Charleston
Pollen levels in Charleston are quite mild today. Weeds are the only pollen type showing any activity, and even that is at a very low level, so most people should be able to spend time outdoors without much irritation, even if they're usually sensitive to pollen. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to hold steady at this low level over the next several days, with no notable increases on the horizon. This is a fairly typical lull for mid-August in the Lowcountry — tree pollen from species like oak and pine has long since wound down after its spring peak, grass pollen has largely eased following its late-spring surge, and ragweed, the main late-summer and fall weed culprit, has yet to ramp up in a meaningful way. For now, conditions remain calm and easy to enjoy.
