How to read pollen count
Pollen and mold levels are determined by the National Allergy Bureau and have been translated into four levels based on the counts for the majority of days and the averages over the years.
LOW
A low pollen count means that only people who are extremely sensitive to pollen and mold will have allergy symptoms.
MODERATE
A moderate pollen count means more people will have allergy symptoms.
HIGH
A high pollen count means that most people with a sensitivity to pollen and/or molds can experience allergy symptoms.
Very High
A very high pollen count means that almost everyone who has an allergy to molds and pollen will experience symptoms.
