High Pollen Count for Norcross on Monday

It's spring 2013, and that means pollen.

The Atlanta Asthma & Allergy Clinic has measured the local pollen count at 2,093 particles per cubic meter of air on Monday (April 8). That follows a reading of 1,691 on Sunday.

Weather.com reports that high pollen levels affect most people who suffer from seasonal allergies (which is probably no surprise.) Of course, symptoms may intensify on high-pollen days.

In March 2012, the count in Atlanta was in the thousands for 15 days, capped by the record of 9,367 on March 20, 2012, according to ajc.com.
