Pollen in Albuquerque, NM

About pollen in Albuquerque

Pollen levels around Albuquerque are quiet today, with tree pollen registering essentially none. Anyone sensitive to airborne allergens should find little to react to outdoors right now, making this a comfortable stretch for spending time outside without much irritation from the air. Looking ahead, tree pollen is expected to remain absent over the next several days, so no notable change is anticipated in the near term. This lull fits the season, since local trees like ash, elm, Robinia, pine, and metasequoia typically release their pollen in spring rather than midsummer. At this point in the year, attention would more likely shift toward grasses or, later, ragweed, though today's overall reading points to a calm period for allergy sufferers in the city.

What to do today
