🌾 Weekly Pollen Count Update – Reno/Sparks Area 🌳

Just when we thought we had Mother Nature figured out, she’s pulled a little trick on us! Despite our earlier findings, both area trees and grasses made a surprise appearance in this week’s pollen count. 🌬️

Here’s how the numbers broke down:
🌲 42% – Pine tree pollen
🌿 8% – Grass pollen
🌼 50% – Weeds (including sagebrush, tumblew**d, and rabbit brush)

We suspect last week’s warmer temperatures and those overnight winds may have stirred things up and contributed to the unexpected tree and grass pollen presence.

As always, we’ll keep tracking changes closely — because if there’s one thing we can count on, it’s that Reno/Sparks fall weather loves to keep us guessing! 🍂

Stay tuned for next week’s update, and remember to take precautions if you’re sensitive to seasonal allergens. 💨

🌾 Pollen Count Update – Week of October 21, 2025 🌾

First, we’d like to apologize for the technical difficulties that prevented us from posting earlier this month. We also want to note that due to last week’s heavy rains, pollen collection was not possible—thank you for your patience and understanding!

This week’s report shows that only w**ds are currently pollinating, and they remain in the low range. The primary w**d pollens detected are sagebrush and rabbit brush. 🌿

👉 Tree and grass pollens are completely absent, indicating that the 2025 pollen season is coming to an end. With the current trends in counts and forecasted weather, we're likely nearing the official close of the season.

That said, we’ll continue to collect and report weekly (weather permitting) until we confirm a completely absent pollen count.
