About pollen in Columbia

Pollen levels around Columbia are quite subdued today. Grass is the only pollen type being tracked right now, and it registers at a very low level, so most people should be able to spend time outdoors without much irritation. Even those with sensitive sinuses or allergies to grass are unlikely to notice much of an effect under these conditions. Looking ahead, the next several days show grass pollen holding steady at this same low level, with no significant rise expected. This is a welcome lull for midsummer, since grass pollen typically causes more trouble in late spring into early summer before tapering off. Tree pollen from species common to the area, such as oak, maple, and hickory, has already finished its peak season for the year, and ragweed and other late-summer weeds have not yet begun contributing meaningfully. For now, allergy sufferers in Columbia can expect a relatively easy stretch before any seasonal changes take hold later in the year.
