Very Low Pollen in Quincy, MA

About pollen in Quincy

Pollen levels in Quincy remain quiet today. Tree pollen is absent entirely, while weed pollen is present but only at a very low level, unlikely to cause noticeable symptoms for most people. Overall, this is an easy day for allergy sufferers, with little in the air to trigger reactions. Looking ahead, this pattern should hold steady over the next several days, with tree pollen staying inactive and weed pollen lingering at a similarly low level. This fits the season well: local trees such as ash, syringa, pyrus, prunus, and maple release their pollen in spring, so they are dormant now, and any weed pollen this time of year likely reflects the tail end of the late-summer ragweed season rather than a fresh surge. Conditions should stay mild and manageable through the coming days.
