Moderate Pollen in Chino, CA

About pollen in Chino

Weed pollen is the main driver of today's conditions in Chino, sitting at a moderate level that could be noticeable for those who are sensitive to it. Grass pollen is present but only at a very low level, unlikely to cause much trouble, and tree pollen is quiet at this time. Looking ahead, this pattern is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with weed pollen continuing at a moderate level and grass staying minimal. Tree pollen should remain absent, consistent with the season, since local trees such as oak and sycamore have long finished their spring release. The moderate weed activity fits typical late-summer into fall conditions, a period when ragweed and other weedy plants are typically most active in the region.

What to do today
