About pollen in Tempe Junction
Weed pollen is the most active category around Tempe Junction today, though it remains at a low level overall. Grass is barely registering, sitting at a very low level, so most people should be able to go about their day without much irritation. Those who are especially sensitive to weeds might notice mild effects, but conditions overall are calm. Looking ahead, this pattern is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with grass staying minimal and weed pollen lingering at that same low level. This lines up with the season, as late summer in the Phoenix area typically brings a gradual uptick in weed pollen, including from desert ragweed and similar plants, while grass activity tends to stay subdued through the hottest stretch of the year. Tree pollen, mainly from species like mesquite, olive, and palo verde, is largely out of its active season and not a concern right now.
