Low Pollen in Mesquite, TX

About pollen in Mesquite

Grass pollen is the main driver in Mesquite today, sitting at a Low level (2) and pushing the overall index to Low as well. Tree pollen has dropped off completely, registering None, so the area's oak, crepe myrtle (Lagerstroemia), Chinese tallow (Triadica), privet (Ligustrum), and hickory are not contributing much at this point in the season. The five-day forecast holds grass steady at Low (2) across the board, so don't expect any meaningful change in the days ahead. This pattern fits late June, when spring's tree pollen peak has passed and grasses take over as the primary source through early summer. Ragweed and other weeds typically pick up later in the summer and fall, and there's no weed data available today.
