About pollen in Raleigh
Weed pollen is the main contributor to Raleigh's air today, though it remains at a low level overall. Tree pollen is nearly absent, so most people should notice little to nothing in the way of symptoms. Even those with more sensitive allergies are unlikely to find today particularly troublesome. Looking ahead, this pattern should hold steady through the next several days, with weed pollen staying low and tree pollen essentially quiet. This is typical for mid-August, a seasonal lull between the spring tree bloom of oaks, pines, and maples and the ragweed surge that tends to build later in the fall. For now, conditions favor easy breathing with little pollen-related disruption expected.
