Discussion
Based on past pollen counts and expected weather conditions, pollen levels for Friday will be increasing over today's levels in the moderate range. This is likely to be caused in part by seasonally normal weather conditions which are favorable for the production and dispersal of pollen. These overall conditions could make it a bit more difficult for those who are allergic to airborne pollens.
Allergy Facts
While forest fires emit vast amounts of smoke and small particulate matter into the air, they do not affect the pollen count in the short term. Analysts viewing air samples to conduct the daily pollen count may see drastic increases in black debris on their microscope slides, but do not typically conduct any "count" of this debris to report to the public. Loss of pollen-producing trees, if great enough, may reduce tree pollen counts in coming seasons.
