Discussion

Based on past pollen counts and expected weather conditions, pollen levels for Wednesday will be falling in the moderate range. Since the weather has a major influence on pollen dispersal, this decrease is due in part to rising humidity, weakening winds and expected precipitation in the afternoon and evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
