Pollen in Minneapolis, MN

About pollen in Minneapolis

Pollen is essentially quiet across Minneapolis today. Tree pollen, the only category being tracked right now, is registering at none, so there is little reason to expect any allergy symptoms tied to pollen at this point in the week. Looking ahead, the forecast stays flat with no meaningful tree pollen expected over the next several days. This lines up with the season: with mid-November here, trees like elm, maple, oak, and syringa have long since finished releasing pollen and won't become active again until they begin budding out in spring. For now, outdoor conditions should remain comfortable for those who typically react to tree pollen.

What to do today

• Pollen is minimal today, so it's a great time to be outside.
