Pollen Index: 9.1 Pollen Level: medium-high Predominant Pollen: Ragweed and Grass. Pollen concentrations for Monday will be falling but will remain in the high range. This relief in pollen levels is caused in part by falling temperatures, rising humidity, and expected precipitation in the morning, afternoon and evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
