Wednesday's Comments

Misery Index - pollen: 19 (low). Misery Index - mold: 1 (low). The recent rain events have cleared the air of pollen and mold. In fact the total number of particles in the air is quite low. The air is fresh and clean. This will not last long, so allergic individuals should use this opportunity to enjoy outdoor activities. Once the rain events end, the air bioflora is likely to return to its usual levels.
