Pollen Alert
-Pollen Index: 10.5 Pollen Level: high Predominant Pollen: Cedar/Juniper, Maple and Elm. The amount of pollen in the air for Monday will be falling but will remain in the high range. This lowering of pollen concentrations is a result of rising humidity, weakening winds and expected precipitation in the evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air. With this amount of reduction in pollen levels, tomorrow should be better for allergy sufferers.
