About pollen in Jersey City

Pollen levels in Jersey City remain quiet today. Tree pollen is the only type showing any activity, and it sits at a very low level, meaning most people should not notice any effects even if they are typically sensitive to pollen from trees like oak, zelkova, honeylocust, ginkgo, or linden. Looking ahead, tree pollen is expected to stay at this same low level over the next several days, so no significant change is anticipated in the near term. This lull fits with the season, as the heavier tree pollen release typically associated with spring has long since passed, and any lingering activity from local trees is now minimal heading into late summer.

What to do today

  • Pollen is low today, so it's a good day for outdoor activities.
  • If you're sensitive, rinsing off after time outside still helps.
