About pollen in Portsmouth
Weed pollen is the main story in Portsmouth today, though it remains at a low level that most people won't notice much. Tree pollen is essentially quiet this time of year, so overall conditions are mild and shouldn't cause more than mild irritation for those who are especially sensitive. Looking ahead, this pattern is expected to hold steady through the next several days, with weed pollen staying low and tree pollen continuing to be a non-issue. This tracks with the season — local trees like oak, maple, and pine finished their heavy pollen production back in spring, and we're now in the stretch where weeds, including early ragweed, start to show up more as summer moves toward fall. For now, though, conditions remain calm and easy to manage.
