Pollen in Sandy Springs, GA

About pollen in Sandy Springs

Pollen counts around Sandy Springs are quiet today, with tree pollen sitting at essentially none. Anyone who typically reacts to oak, linden, elm, or other neighborhood trees should get a break for now, since there is little in the air to trigger symptoms. Looking ahead, conditions are expected to stay calm through the next several days, with tree pollen holding steady at low or absent levels. This tracks with the season, since the tree pollen surge from species like oak, elm, and carpinus is a spring event and has long since wound down. Midsummer tends to be a lighter stretch for allergy sufferers overall, though it's worth keeping an eye out as late summer approaches, when weeds such as ragweed typically begin to stir.
