Pollen Index: 11.1 Pollen Level: high Predominant Pollen: Ragweed, Chenopods and Nettle. Based on past pollen counts and expected weather conditions, pollen levels for Sunday will be falling but will remain in the very high range. This change results in part from falling temperatures, rising humidity, and expected precipitation in the afternoon which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
