About pollen in Surprise
Pollen levels in Surprise remain mild today, with weeds edging out grass as the main source of activity. Weed pollen sits at a low level, while grass is barely registering. For most people, this should mean little to no irritation, though those with a strong sensitivity to weeds may notice some mild effects, particularly if spending extended time outdoors in the afternoon. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to hold steady over the next several days, with grass staying very low and weed pollen continuing at a low, manageable level. This lines up with the typical late-summer pattern for the Southwest, as desert trees like mesquite, palo verde, and olive have long finished their spring release, and the region moves toward the period when ragweed and other weeds become the more dominant contributor into fall. For now, though, air quality for allergy sufferers looks fairly calm.
