The pollen levels for Monday will be falling and will remain in the very low range. Since the weather has a major influence on pollen dispersal, this decrease is due in part to rising humidity, relatively calmer winds and expected precipitation in the morning which tends to wash pollen out of the air.

Most pollen grains are 20 to 40 micrometers in size, however, there are many that are far from the norm. Pumpkin pollen grains, for example, can reach 250 micrometers in diameter--almost large enough to see with the naked eye.
