About pollen in Daly City

Pollen levels in Daly City are quiet today. Tree pollen is absent altogether, while grass pollen is present only at a very low level, unlikely to cause much trouble even for those who tend to be sensitive. Overall, this is a mild day for allergy sufferers, with little in the air to prompt concern. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to hold steady over the next couple of days, with tree pollen remaining absent and grass staying at a similarly low level. This fits the seasonal pattern for early fall, well past the spring peak for trees like Ginkgo, Metrosideros, and Pittosporum, and beyond the late-spring surge typically seen in grasses. For now, air quality on the pollen front looks calm, and there is little indication of a shift in the immediate future.
