Melbourne Grass Pollen

Yesterday's extreme grass pollen levels were no small event. As our chart showed, the levels peaked around 8 PM, impacting many of you dealing with hay fever or asthma. This morning, November 3rd, we're starting to see a dip in pollen counts, but conditions are still high and worth noting as we move through the day.
