Very Low Pollen in Lakewood, CO

About pollen in Lakewood

Pollen levels in Lakewood are quiet today. Tree pollen is absent, and weed pollen is registering at only a very low level, so most residents should notice little to no effect even if they tend to be sensitive to seasonal allergens. Looking ahead, this calm pattern is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with weed pollen remaining at a similarly low level and tree pollen staying inactive. This fits the time of year, as local trees such as elm, oak, ash, ailanthus, and cercis are well past their spring release and not contributing to the count. Weed pollen, typically associated with late summer into fall, is present but subdued, making this a comparatively easy stretch for allergy sufferers in the area.
