About pollen in San Marcos

Grass pollen is the main player in San Marcos today, sitting at a Low level on the index and driving an overall reading of 2, also Low. The near-term outlook stays gentle: grass holds at Low for the next couple of days before easing toward the bottom of the scale through the back half of the forecast. This pattern fits the season, as grasses tend to be the dominant source in late spring and early summer once tree pollen has tapered off from its springtime peak. Tree and weed levels aren't reported right now, so grass remains the clearest signal in the local air. Ragweed, the late-summer and fall concern, isn't a factor at this point in the calendar.
