About pollen in Tempe Junction
Weed pollen is the main contributor to today's conditions in Tempe Junction, sitting at a moderate level that may be noticeable for those who are sensitive. Grass pollen remains very low and should not pose much of a concern. Overall, this is a fairly manageable day for most people, though those prone to weed allergies may want to take some precautions. Looking ahead, weed pollen is expected to hold steady at moderate levels through the next several days, so this pattern should continue rather than ease up soon. Grass pollen is likely to stay low over the same period.
