Live oak
Quercus virginiana
Very low today, mostly grass pollen.
Last updated August 15, 2026
Pollen levels around Sugar Land are quiet today. Tree pollen is absent, while grass and weed pollen are both present only in trace amounts. Overall, this adds up to a very low pollen day, and most people, including those with sensitivities, should notice little to no effect. Looking ahead, this calm pattern is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with grass and weed pollen staying at similarly low, barely noticeable levels and tree pollen remaining absent. This fits the season, since local trees like oak, hickory, and vitex have already released their heaviest pollen earlier in the year, and late summer tends to bring a lighter overall pollen load before weed pollen typically increases as fall approaches.
