Low Pollen in Greensboro, NC

About pollen in Greensboro

Grass pollen is the main driver in Greensboro today, sitting at a Low level (2) and carrying the overall index, which also reads Low at 2. Tree pollen has dropped off to None, so the local allergenic trees like Birch, Cryptomeria, and Cunninghamia aren't contributing right now. The five-day forecast holds grass steady at Low (2) throughout, so expect little change in the days ahead. This tracks with the season, as tree pollen typically winds down after its spring peak while grass tends to dominate through late spring and early summer. Weed pollen has no data available at this time.
