About pollen in Richmond
Pollen levels around Richmond are quiet today. Grass is the only type showing any activity, and even that is at the lowest end of the scale, meaning most people should get through the day without any irritation. This is a good stretch for spending time outdoors with little concern about pollen triggering symptoms. Looking ahead, grass pollen is expected to stay at this same low level over the next couple of days, with no signs of a notable rise. This fits the seasonal pattern, as the region's oaks, maples, and other trees finished releasing their heaviest pollen back in spring, and grasses are now well past their own peak from late spring into early summer. Ragweed and other late-summer weeds have not yet become a factor, so overall conditions should remain calm for the time being.
