About pollen in Tulsa
Weed pollen is the main driver of today's conditions in Tulsa, sitting at a moderate level that could be noticeable for those who are sensitive. Tree pollen, by contrast, is essentially quiet right now, so any irritation you notice outdoors is far more likely tied to weeds than to trees. Looking ahead, this pattern is expected to hold steady over the next several days, with weed pollen remaining moderate and tree pollen staying low. This lines up with the seasonal calendar — mid-August is well past the spring output from trees like oak, elm, and pecan that are common in the area, and it falls squarely within the stretch when ragweed and other weeds typically become the dominant source of pollen through late summer and into fall.
