About pollen in South Gate

Pollen levels in South Gate are quiet today. Tree pollen is absent, while grass and weed pollen are both running very low. Most people should have no trouble, though those with particular sensitivity to grass or weeds may notice a faint presence. Looking ahead, this calm pattern is expected to hold through the next several days, with tree pollen staying absent and grass and weed levels remaining low and steady. This lines up with the season, as local trees such as Prunus, Ficus, Mulberry, Pyrus, and Oak are well past their spring peak, and weed pollen, including ragweed, tends to linger at low levels into early fall rather than spiking. For now, outdoor conditions look comfortable for most allergy sufferers.
