Rowan County Pollen Forecast

Pollen levels remain Medium-High today across Rowan County with a reading of 9.2.

The main allergens impacting our area today are:

• Maple
• Elm

Tree pollen is the first major allergy trigger of the year in North Carolina and typically begins rising in late winter and peaks during March and April, which is why many people start noticing symptoms this time of year.

Looking Ahead:
Pollen levels are expected to increase to High tomorrow (10.3) as dry weather and warmer temperatures help pollen circulate more easily in the air.

If you suffer from seasonal allergies, you may want to:

• Limit outdoor exposure during the afternoon
• Keep windows closed during peak pollen hours
• Rinse off or change clothes after spending time outside
