Allergies & Pollen for Ponderosa Pine, New Mexico
Discussion
Based on past pollen counts and expected weather conditions, pollen levels 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 lack of winds and expected precipitation in the morning and evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
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.
