Why Raleigh Is a Hotspot for Pollen: A Blooming Challenge
This year, Raleigh has experienced notably high pollen levels due to a combination of environmental and climatic factors:
Extended Pollen Seasons: The pollen season in Raleigh has started earlier and is lasting longer. This extension is partly attributed to warmer winter temperatures and earlier springs, which allow plants to begin their growth and pollen production cycles sooner.
Increased Pollen Production: Specific trees in Raleigh, such as ash, mulberry, oak, pine, and sweet gum, are producing higher levels of pollen. This year, pollen counts have reached new highs, with figures surpassing previous records.
Climate Change Impacts: Climate change has been a significant factor, exacerbating pollen production. Warmer temperatures and increased carbon dioxide levels enhance the growth rates of many plants, leading them to produce more pollen for longer periods.
