About pollen in Chico

Pollen levels in Chico are quiet today, with weed pollen the only type registering any measurable presence, and even that is running very low. Anyone with sensitivities should find conditions easy to manage, with little chance of noticeable irritation. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to hold steady at this low level through the next several days, so no significant changes are on the horizon. This lull fits the seasonal pattern for the Chico area: the heavier tree pollen from oaks and other regional species already peaked back in spring, and grass pollen has largely wound down from its late-spring surge. As late summer continues, ragweed and other weeds typically become the main source of pollen, though so far this season their impact remains minimal.
