Pollen Index: 11.8 Pollen Level: high Predominant Pollen: Poplar/Aspen/Cottonwood, Maple and Cedar/Juniper. The amount of pollen in the air for Wednesday will be falling but will remain in the very high range. This decrease is due to rising humidity, weakening winds and expected precipitation in the evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
