About pollen in Lehigh Acres
Weed pollen is the main driver of today's conditions in Lehigh Acres, running high enough that sensitive individuals will likely notice symptoms through much of the day. Tree pollen, by contrast, is barely registering and shouldn't cause any trouble. Looking ahead, weed pollen should ease gradually over the next several days, moving from high down to a more moderate level by the end of the stretch, while tree pollen is expected to stay quiet throughout. This pattern fits the season well: with fall underway in southwest Florida, ragweed and other weedy plants are typically the dominant source of pollen, while local trees such as oak, pine, and cypress remain largely dormant until their usual late-winter to spring pollen season arrives.
