Low Pollen in Las Vegas, NV

About pollen in Las Vegas

Grass pollen is the main story in Las Vegas today, though it remains at a low level that most people will barely notice. Tree pollen is nearly absent right now, so anyone sensitive to airborne particles should find conditions fairly comfortable overall. Looking ahead, grass pollen is expected to hold steady at this same low level through the next several days, so no significant change is on the way. This tracks with the season, since local trees like Washingtonia, Phoenix, Chamaerops, Ash, and Pistacia have largely finished their spring release, leaving grasses as the more relevant source of pollen during these summer months.
