Low Pollen in Santa Rosa, CA

About pollen in Santa Rosa

Weed pollen is the most active category in Santa Rosa today, though overall levels remain low across the board. Tree and grass pollen are both very light and unlikely to cause much trouble, while weed pollen is running slightly higher and may be noticeable to those who are especially sensitive. Looking ahead, this pattern should hold steady over the next several days, with weed pollen staying at a low level and grass and tree pollen continuing to sit at the low end as well. This lines up with the season: tree pollen typically peaks back in spring, grass pollen tends to run its course by early summer, and weeds like ragweed are the ones still active into early fall. Local trees such as oak, sequoia, and pine are largely dormant for pollen purposes this time of year, so weeds remain the main thing to keep an eye on for now.
