About pollen in Near North Side
Pollen levels in Near North Side are quiet today, with weeds the only source showing any activity, and even that is running very low. Most people should be able to move through their day without much irritation, and those with sensitivities are unlikely to notice more than a mild effect, if any at all. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to stay in this same low range through midweek, with a slight uptick possible on one day before settling back down. This lines up with the tail end of the ragweed season, which tends to linger into early fall before fading out. Tree pollen from species like oak and maple is out of season at this point, and grass pollen has also wound down, so weeds remain the main thing to keep an eye on for now.
