Pollen in Harlem, NY

About pollen in Harlem

Tree pollen is quiet across Harlem today, with counts sitting at essentially nothing. Anyone sensitive to pollen should find the air comfortable right now, with little to nothing in the way of tree-related symptoms expected. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to stay calm, with no meaningful tree pollen activity anticipated in the coming days. This lines up with the season: mid-November falls well outside the active windows for local trees like oak, birch, Prunus, Crataegus, and Koelreuteria, which typically release their pollen in spring rather than late autumn. For now, there is little reason to expect tree pollen to be a source of irritation.

What to do today
