Discussion
The amount of pollen in the air for Tuesday will be on the increase in the moderate range. Since the weather has a major influence on pollen dispersal, this increase is due in part to higher temperatures and the lower dewpoint. The increase of this magnitude could make it more difficult for those with allergies.
Allergy Facts
Sedges are typically classified with the grass family when reported in pollen counts. Although 4,000 species of these grass-like plants exist around the world, they generally grow in marshy areas away from human population centers. Few people, therefore, suffer from allergies to sedge pollen.
