Live oak
Quercus virginiana
Very low today, mostly grass pollen.
Last updated July 9, 2026
Pollen levels around Sugar Land are quiet today. Grass is the only pollen type showing any activity, and it remains at a very low level, so most people should not notice much in the way of symptoms. Tree pollen is absent entirely, which is typical for this point in the summer. Looking ahead, grass pollen is expected to hold steady at this same low level over the next several days, with no significant increase on the horizon. Tree pollen should stay quiet as well, since local trees like oak, hickory, vitex, Lagerstroemia, and Washingtonia palm have already finished their main pollen release earlier in the year. Overall, this is a calm stretch for allergy sufferers, with grass being the only pollen type worth keeping in mind through midsummer.
