About pollen in Nampa
Weed pollen is the main story in Nampa today, sitting at a moderate level. Those with sensitivities may notice some symptoms when spending time outdoors, particularly during the afternoon hours, though most people should be able to get through the day without significant discomfort. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to hold steady at this same moderate level through the next several days, so little change is on the horizon this week. This tracks with the calendar, as late summer is prime season for weeds like ragweed across the region. Tree pollen, which typically peaks in spring with contributions from species such as cottonwood, elm, and juniper, and grass pollen, more active in late spring and early summer, are both well past their seasonal high points for the Treasure Valley, leaving weeds as the pollen type to keep in mind for now.
