About pollen in Newark

Pollen levels in Newark are quiet today, with grass the only type showing any activity, and even that is at a very low level. Most people should be able to go about their day without much irritation, including those who normally react to grass pollen. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to hold steady over the next stretch, with grass pollen staying at this low level. This is a bit of a lull in the season — tree pollen from species like oak, maple, and birch typically peaks back in spring, grass pollen usually runs its course by early summer, and ragweed season won't pick up until late summer into fall. For now, Newark is in a relatively calm in-between period for allergy sufferers.
