About pollen in Edison

Pollen levels in Edison are mild today, with weeds edging out trees as the more noticeable presence. Overall exposure remains low, so most people should get through the day without much trouble, though those especially sensitive to weed pollen may notice a mild effect during peak afternoon hours. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to tick up slightly midweek before settling back down, while tree pollen should stay low and steady throughout the period. This pattern fits the season well: with oak, maple, and birch long past their spring peak, tree pollen is essentially a non-issue right now, and the mild weed activity reflects the early stages of ragweed season, which typically builds through late summer and into fall. Grass pollen is winding down at this point in the year, so weeds are the one to keep an eye on in the coming weeks.
