Weekly Pollen Count Update 🌿
We’re seeing some welcome relief in the air! Overall pollen levels have decreased significantly over the past week, most likely due to the cooler overnight temperatures. The overall pollen count is now in the MODERATE range at 4/12 on the pollen index.
🌾 What’s in the air? W**ds continue to be the most prominent pollinators in our area, making up 92% of the total pollen count. The main w**d pollens detected are:
🌿 Sagebrush
🌿 Rabbit brush
🌿 Tumblew**d
Trees and grasses are still present, but both remain in the LOW range:
🌲 Tree pollen: 6% — Pine is currently the only tree pollen being detected.
🌱 Grass pollen: 2%
While pollen levels are improving, allergy symptoms can still occur, especially for those sensitive to w**d pollen.
📊 We’ll continue collecting and monitoring pollen levels weekly, weather permitting, until pollen is no longer present. This typically occurs after the first “hard” freeze, which is not currently predicted until at least the end of the month.
Be sure to check our website for weekly updates and complete pollen count details, and please call our office if you have any questions, concerns, or allergy needs. We’re here to help you breathe easier! 💚
