POLLEN IN LOS ANGELES

Outlook for May

Trees: Will continue to play a small role during the month.

Weeds: The unusual activity during the first three weeks of April has subsided and there should be little pollen in May.

Grasses: Expect an increase in this category because of the rain in late April.

Molds: Mold count will start coming down as the weather dries out.
