Local Environmental Conditions
The area around this part of San Marcos is a mix of woodland and scrubland. Among allergenic trees nearby, oak leads, followed by plane tree and willow. Grasses also feature strongly, alongside mugwort and pigweed among the weeds. In the immediate area, scrubland contributes pollen from shrubs, grasses and herbs.
Oak, plane tree and willow lead the season in mid-spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in late spring and keep pollen in the air into early fall. The season closes with mugwort and pigweed through summer. Spring is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.
