About pollen in New Bedford
Pollen across New Bedford is running very low today, with both tree and grass each at a 1 on the Universal Pollen Index, so neither is exerting much pressure on the air right now. The overall index sits at the same very low level, and there's no current data available for weeds. Looking ahead, grass holds steady at very low for the next couple of days before a brief uptick to low (a 2) and then easing back, while tree pollen is forecast to stay flat at very low. This timing fits the season, as late spring and early summer typically favor grass pollen while the tree pollen from regional species like oak, birch, and pine has largely tapered off after its spring peak. Ragweed, the dominant weed allergen, generally doesn't ramp up until later in the summer and into fall.
