Atlanta Pollen Count

Posted: 7:30 am EDT April 21,2006Updated: 9:36 am EST March 8,2010

ATLANTA -- Today's count is 66.

That is in the high range.

The major pollens present are cedar, elm and maple.

TODAY'S TIP: Spring pollens may be most bothersome at mid-day or mid-afternoon. During this time, the wind picks up the pollen particles and distributes them throughout the air.
