Low Pollen in Suffolk, VA

About pollen in Suffolk

Weed pollen is the main story in Suffolk today, though even that is running low and shouldn't cause much trouble for most people. Tree and grass pollen are both very low, essentially a non-issue for the moment. Overall, this is a fairly easy day for anyone who deals with seasonal allergies. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to tick up slightly over the next few days before easing back again, so those sensitive to ragweed and similar plants may notice a bit more irritation midweek. Tree and grass pollen should stay quiet throughout the period, which fits the season, since local trees like oak and maple are dormant this time of year and grasses have largely finished their active stretch. Early fall in this region is typically dominated by weeds, particularly ragweed, so this pattern is right on schedule.
