Low Pollen in Huntington Beach, CA

About pollen in Huntington Beach

Overall pollen in Huntington Beach is running low today. Tree pollen registers as the more noticeable of the two categories, though it remains on the mild side, while grass pollen is barely present. For most people, today should pass without much irritation, though those especially sensitive to tree pollen may notice a mild effect outdoors. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to hold steady through the next several days, with grass pollen staying at a very low, consistent level and no significant swings anticipated. This fits the general seasonal pattern for the area, as the spring tree pollen surge has largely passed and grass pollen typically stays subdued through summer. Local palms such as Washingtonia, Phoenix, and Syagrus, along with Trachycarpus and Archontophoenix, remain the main tree contributors this time of year, but their overall output continues to stay low.
