About pollen in Salt Lake City
Grass is the main source of pollen in the Salt Lake Valley today, though levels remain on the low side. Most people should be able to move through their day without much irritation, though those with a strong sensitivity to grass may notice mild symptoms, especially with time spent outdoors in the afternoon. Tree pollen, meanwhile, is barely registering at this point in the season. Looking ahead, grass pollen is expected to hold steady at similar low levels over the next several days, so no significant change is on the horizon. Tree pollen should stay quiet as well, which is typical for midsummer now that species like cottonwood, oak, and maple have long finished their spring release. This is a fairly calm stretch overall, with grasses doing the bulk of the work until ragweed and other late-summer weeds begin appearing in a couple of months.
