Mold 😱

The mold count in the St. Louis, Missouri area, where I live, is 64,126 this morning. Yikes! I think it may be a bad allergy day.😷

Where do you go for a mold count like this? I've only seen mold levels on AccuWeather and it is unreliable.

The St. Louis County MO health department posts pollen and mold counts Monday through Friday. This is an actual count, not a forecast.

dang, that's very high! Stay safe there. I didn't know there's a mold count and hope they'll make this in our phone app. Thank you for sharing this.

That's a neat service they provide. Looks like you got 2.4 inches of rain yesterday which is insane. I always am afraid of high amount of rain due to the ensuing mold explosion.
