Allergies & Pollen Count for Bel Air, Maryland
Discussion
Pollen concentrations for Monday will be falling in the low range. This lowering of pollen concentrations is a result of rising humidity, weak winds and expected precipitation in the morning, afternoon and evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air. The lower pollen levels are significant and should help allergy sufferers to cope tomorrow.
Allergy Facts
Pollen from brightly colored, attractive flowers is usually not the cause of hay fever because it is seldom dispersed into the atmosphere in great quantities. These plants generally produce large, waxy pollen grains that are instead transported by insects such as bees and ants.
