Pollen in Astoria, NY

About pollen in Astoria

Pollen is essentially quiet across Astoria today. Tree pollen is registering at none, meaning trees like maple, honeylocust, liquidambar, prunus, and pyrus are not contributing any noticeable allergy burden right now. For most residents, today should feel clear on the pollen front. Looking ahead, tree pollen is expected to stay at this low level through the near term, so little change is anticipated over the next few days. This tracks with the season, since local trees typically release their heaviest pollen in spring rather than midsummer. As late July continues, keep in mind that grass pollen is often more relevant this time of year, and ragweed will become the one to watch as we move into late summer and fall.

What to do today

• Pollen is minimal today, so it's a great time to be outside.
