Low Pollen in Mount Pleasant, SC

About pollen in Mount Pleasant

Weed pollen is the main contributor to the air in Mount Pleasant today, though levels remain low overall and should go unnoticed by most people. Tree and grass pollen are both minimal right now, so the bulk of any irritation, if you notice it at all, would come from weeds rather than trees or grasses. Over the next several days, tree and grass pollen are expected to stay quiet, which is typical for mid-October once oak, pine, and other regional trees have long finished their spring release and grasses have wound down for the year. Weed pollen, on the other hand, is likely to creep up slightly by the end of the forecast period, consistent with the seasonal ragweed activity that tends to linger into fall. Sensitive individuals may want to keep an eye on those later days, though conditions overall remain mild for this time of year.
