Very Low Pollen in Flatbush, NY

About pollen in Flatbush

Pollen activity in Flatbush is minimal today. Tree pollen is absent, and grass pollen is only present at a very low level, so most people should notice little to no effect even if they tend to be sensitive. Overall, this is an easy day for anyone who deals with seasonal allergies. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to stay quiet, with grass pollen holding at a similarly low level and tree pollen remaining out of the picture. This fits the season, since local trees like oak, elm, and pear have already released their pollen earlier in the year, and honeylocust and Styphnolobium typically add little at this point. Grass pollen can linger into midsummer, but current levels suggest it won't be a significant concern in the near term.
