Low Pollen in Sandy Springs, GA

About pollen in Sandy Springs

Grass is the main player in Sandy Springs today, sitting at a Low level and driving an overall index that also reads Low. Tree pollen has dropped off to None, so oak, linden, elm, Cercis, and Carpinus are no longer meaningful contributors at this point in the season. The five-day forecast holds grass steady at Low throughout, suggesting little change in the days ahead. This fits the late-spring-into-early-summer pattern, when the tree pollen that peaks earlier in spring has faded and grasses take over as the dominant source. Overall, conditions remain on the calmer side for now.
