Discussion
Concentration of pollen grains in the air for Monday will be falling in the low range. Since the weather has a major influence on pollen dispersal, this decrease is due in part to falling temperatures, rising humidity, and expected precipitation in the morning, afternoon and evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air. That's good news for allergy sufferers.
Allergy Facts
Mountainous regions may serve as allergy havens. Their high altitude does not permit many allergenic plants to grow, and their isolated location reduces outside pollen contamination to a minimum. A vacation to the mountains during peak allergy season may be a good idea for individuals suffering from hay fever.
