Pollen Index: 11.7 Pollen Level: high Predominant Pollen: Oak, Sweetgum and Poplar/Aspen/Cottonwood. The amount of pollen in the air for Sunday will be falling but will remain in the very high range. This change results in part from falling temperatures and expected precipitation in the morning and evening which tends to wash pollen out of the air. With this amount of reduction in pollen levels, tomorrow should be better for allergy sufferers.
