The quantity of pollen grains in the air for Saturday will be falling in the moderate range. This lower level is caused by falling temperatures, rising humidity, and expected precipitation in the morning and afternoon which tends to wash pollen out of the air.
Allergy Facts
Many people believe that mowing their lawn prevents it from going to seed and therefore reduces the amount of pollen the grass plants produce. Unfortunately, the reproductive organ of several species of grass plants are low to the ground and escape the mower's blade. This ensures a continuous source of pollen right outside your window.
