The shift to southerly winds and continued warm temperatures should lead to falling pollen counts in the next 24 hours.

Why today's count changed

Yesterday's weather conditions, characterized by northerly winds, likely sustained the consistent cedar pollen counts observed today.

The northerly winds transported pollen from the Hill Country into Austin, maintaining the pollen count. The moderate humidity may have slightly suppressed pollen release, but the wind direction was the dominant factor. Without rain to scrub the air, pollen levels remained consistent.
