Pollen in East Harlem, NY

About pollen in East Harlem

Pollen counts across East Harlem are quiet today, with tree pollen at essentially zero. Anyone sensitive to airborne allergens should find little to react to outdoors right now, making this a comfortable stretch for most people who typically deal with seasonal symptoms. Looking ahead, tree pollen is expected to stay flat over the next several days, so no significant change is on the horizon. This tracks with the season: mid-November falls well outside the active windows for local trees like Zelkova, Honeylocust, Pyrus, Oak, and Styphnolobium, which typically release pollen in spring rather than late fall. Grass and ragweed season have also wound down by this point in the year, so overall allergy conditions should remain calm for the near term.

What to do today

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