About pollen in Near North Side
Grass pollen is the main driver across the Near North Side today, sitting at a Low level (2) and accounting for the overall Low reading. The forecast holds steady in that Low range for the next several days before easing slightly toward the end of the period. This tracks with the season, as late June typically falls within the grass pollen window of late spring and early summer. Tree and weed pollen are not being reported in the current data, so grass remains the relevant category to watch for now. Ragweed and other weed pollens generally pick up later in the summer and into fall.
