About pollen in Mid-City

Pollen levels across Mid-City are quiet today, with tree, grass, and weed sources all registering at very low levels. There's little reason to expect any noticeable irritation, even for those who tend to be sensitive this time of year. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to hold steady through the next several days, with grass and weed pollen remaining low and no significant changes on the horizon. This lull fits the season — local trees such as Plane, Tristania, Maple, Ficus, and Oak are well past their spring peak, and with grass pollen typically settling down after early summer and ragweed-type weeds not yet stirring in force, autumn tends to bring a calmer stretch for allergy sufferers in the area.
