About pollen in Moreno Valley

Weed pollen is the main story in Moreno Valley today, sitting at a moderate level that could be noticeable for those who tend to react to it. Grass pollen is present but very light, while tree pollen is essentially quiet right now. Overall, it is a fairly manageable day, though sensitive individuals may still feel some effects from the weeds circulating in the air. Looking ahead, this pattern is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with weed pollen remaining the most active type and grass staying minimal in the background. Tree pollen should continue to stay dormant, which fits the season, since local varieties like oak, sycamore, and olive typically finish their pollen release well before fall. This time of year is when weeds such as ragweed and sagebrush are more likely to dominate, so the current conditions reflect a fairly typical early autumn stretch for the area.

What to do today

  • It's important to shower and wash your hair after spending a lot of time outdoors.

  • Wash clothes worn outdoors to remove any remnants of pollen grains.
  • If possible, wear glasses instead of contact lenses.
  • Did you hang any laundry outside? Now is a good time to hang clothes indoors or use a dryer if possible.
