Pollen Alert
-Pollen Index: 9.4 Pollen Level: medium-high Predominant Pollen: Oak, Myrtle/Bayberry and Cedar/Juniper. The amount of pollen in the air for Sunday will be falling but will remain in the high range. This change results in part from rising humidity, weakening winds and expected precipitation in the afternoon and evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
