Low Pollen in Overland Park, KS

About pollen in Overland Park

Grass pollen is the main player in Overland Park today, sitting at a Low level (2 on the index) and driving the overall reading, which is also Low at 2. Tree pollen has dropped off to none right now, so the area's typical spring contributors—Maple, Pine, Ash, Oak, and Pyrus—are no longer adding to the mix. The five-day forecast holds grass steady at a Low level of 2 throughout, suggesting no major swings in the near term. This fits the season, as late spring and early summer is when grass pollen tends to take over from the spring tree peak. Weed pollen has no data available at this time.
