About pollen in Richmond
Grass pollen is the main player in Richmond today, sitting at a low level on the Universal Pollen Index and accounting for the overall Low reading of 2. The five-day outlook keeps grass in much the same range, hovering between low readings before easing toward the lighter end by the end of the period. Tree and weed pollen aren't reporting data right now, so grass is the only measurable driver. That fits the season, as grass pollen tends to be most active through late spring and into early summer while the springtime surge from trees like oak, birch, and alder has tapered off. Ragweed and other weed sources typically don't ramp up until later in the summer and into fall, so they're not a factor at the moment.
