Pollen in Cranston, RI

About pollen in Cranston

Pollen levels in Cranston remain quiet today, with tree pollen the only type registering, and even that is at a very low level. Sensitive individuals are unlikely to notice much in the way of symptoms, and most people should be able to go about outdoor plans without pollen being a concern. Looking ahead, tree pollen is expected to stay very low through the next stretch of days, which fits the season: the trees around Cranston, including maple, oak, plane, ash, and sophora, released the bulk of their pollen back in spring and are now largely finished for the year. Grass pollen typically winds down by midsummer as well, so this is generally a calmer period before ragweed and other late-summer weeds become the main allergy concern in late summer and fall.

What to do today

• Pollen is minimal today, so it's a great time to be outside.
