Pollen in Fordham, NY

About pollen in Fordham

Pollen levels in Fordham are quiet today, with tree pollen essentially absent and no other significant sources reported. For most people sensitive to airborne allergens, this should be an easy day with little to no irritation expected. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to stay calm through much of the week, with only a slight uptick in tree pollen possible by the end of the period. This lines up with the season, since local trees such as elm, oak, Styphnolobium, zelkova, and ash typically finish their heaviest pollen release well before midsummer. As late July settles in, attention for allergy sufferers usually begins shifting toward grasses and, eventually, ragweed later in the season.
