About pollen in Merced
Pollen levels in Merced are quiet today, with weed pollen the only type registering any activity, and even that is running very low. Most people, including those with sensitivities, should notice little to no irritation from pollen under these conditions. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to hold steady at this same low level over the next several days, so no significant changes are on the horizon. This is a fairly typical lull for mid-August, as the region's spring tree bloom from oaks, sycamores, and elms is long past, grass pollen has largely wound down from its late-spring peak, and ragweed and other late-season weeds have not yet ramped up into their more active fall stretch.
