Pollen in Peoria, IL

About pollen in Peoria

Pollen activity in Peoria is fairly quiet as we move through late July. This is typically a lull in the local pollen calendar, sitting between the tail end of the grass season and the ragweed season that picks up later in the summer. Most people should find outdoor conditions comfortable today, with little in the way of tree, grass, or weed pollen to cause irritation. Looking ahead, expect this calmer stretch to continue for the next few days, though grasses can still release occasional pollen through the summer, so mildly sensitive individuals may notice minor fluctuations. The bigger seasonal shift to watch for is the arrival of ragweed season, which typically builds through August and into early fall in this part of Illinois. Tree pollen from species like oak, maple, and elm — common throughout central Illinois — had its peak back in spring and isn't a significant factor this time of year.
