pollen count
Springtime sneeze forecast
A pollen count is a measurement of the concentration of pollen grains in the air, typically expressed as grains per cubic meter.
Weather services and allergy forecasters report pollen counts to help people with hay fever and other allergies anticipate symptom severity.
Counts vary by season and location, with spring and fall typically showing the highest readings.
The pollen count is through the roof today, so I'm staying inside.
