About pollen in Long Beach

Pollen levels in Long Beach are quiet today. Tree pollen is essentially absent, and weeds are registering only a very low presence, so overall conditions are about as mild as they get. Most people, including those with sensitivities, should notice little to nothing in the way of symptoms today. Looking ahead, this calm pattern is expected to hold steady through the next several days, with weed pollen staying at a low level and tree sources such as Ficus, Ash, Washingtonia, Phoenix, and Arecastrum remaining inactive. This lull fits the season, since local trees typically release their pollen in spring and grasses peak in late spring to early summer. Late summer often brings a modest rise in weed pollen as fall approaches, so it is worth keeping an eye out for gradual increases in the weeks ahead, though for now conditions remain settled.
