About pollen in Meads

Pollen levels in Meads are low today, with weed pollen the more noticeable of the two active types, though still easy for most people to manage. Grass pollen is barely present and shouldn't cause much concern for anyone in the area. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to tick up slightly over the next couple of days before easing off entirely by the end of the stretch, while grass levels stay consistently low throughout. This pattern fits the season well: late September is typically when ragweed and other fall weeds are most active in Kentucky, while tree pollen from species like oak and maple remains dormant until spring. Anyone sensitive to ragweed may want to keep an eye on the midweek uptick, though conditions overall remain mild for this time of year.
