Pollen concentrations for Sunday will be increasing and extend further into the very high range. The cause for the rising pollen levels is strong winds and decreasing humidity. Tomorrow's increase could spell trouble for allergy sufferers.

Allergy Facts

For patients who can not or prefer not to use drug therapy, humidified warm air is an alternative treatment. By inhaling humid air 42 to 44 degrees Celsius through the nose for 30 minutes, two to three times a week, nasal obstruction can be reduced. Patients should discuss any treatment options with their doctors.
