Pollen in Sandy Springs, GA

About pollen in Sandy Springs

Pollen activity in Sandy Springs is essentially quiet today. Tree pollen, the only type being measured right now, is at a non-existent level, meaning most people can expect no irritation from it at all. This is welcome news for anyone sensitive to pollen in general, as outdoor conditions should feel clear on this front. Looking ahead, that calm is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with tree pollen staying flat and inactive. This lull fits the season well, as mid-November falls after the fall pollen cycle and well ahead of the real tree pollen push that typically arrives in spring, when area species such as oak, elm, carpinus, cercis, and linden begin releasing pollen in earnest. For now, there is little reason to expect any tree-related symptoms.

What to do today

• Pollen is minimal today, so it's a great time to be outside.
