About pollen in Richardson
Weed pollen is the only type registering in Richardson today, and it remains at a low level. Most people should be able to go about their outdoor plans without much trouble, though those with strong sensitivities may still notice mild effects. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to hold steady at this same low level through the next several days, with no signs of a sudden spike. This lines up with the season, as late summer in North Texas typically brings a gradual uptick in weed pollen, ragweed being the most common culprit, as we head toward the more active fall stretch. Tree pollen from area species like oak, elm, and pecan is long past its spring peak, and grass pollen has also eased from its early summer high, leaving weeds as the main thing worth keeping an eye on for now.
