Pollen Index: 9.6 Pollen Level: medium-high Predominant Pollen: Cedar/Juniper, Maple and Poplar/Aspen/Cottonwood. Concentration of pollen grains in the air for Monday will be falling in the moderate range. Since the weather has a major influence on pollen dispersal, this decrease is due in part to rising humidity and heavy rains in the evening which tend to wash pollen out of the air. That's good news for allergy sufferers.
