About pollen in Wilmington

Weed pollen is the most active type in Wilmington today, though it remains in the low range and should be easy to manage for most people. Tree and grass pollen are both at very low levels, making them a minor concern right now. Overall, conditions are mild, and anyone with sensitivities is unlikely to notice much disruption today. Looking ahead, tree and grass pollen are expected to stay very low through the next several days, offering little change from today. Weed pollen, on the other hand, is forecast to gradually rise, moving from low toward moderate levels by the end of the period. This pattern fits the season, as ragweed and other weeds typically peak in the fall, while oak, pine, and other regional trees remain dormant until spring and grasses stay quiet until closer to late spring and early summer.
