Apex, North Carolina, has been buzzing with activity and spring weather vibes over the past 24 hours! Here's a quick roundup of the latest happenings you need to know.
Residents woke up to a warm Wednesday morning with temperatures hovering around 72°F, thanks to humid southern winds bringing muggy conditions. The day is expected to reach a high of 85°F, with only a slight 20% chance of rain, making it a mostly cloudy but pleasant day for outdoor activities. Winds will remain breezy, gusting up to 24 mph later in the afternoon.
Pollen remains a hot topic in Apex this spring. With a whopping count of 1,334 grains per cubic meter as of the latest report, the tree pollen from oak, pine, and sweetgum is dominating the air. Allergy sufferers are feeling the impact, so make sure to keep tissues on hand and follow tips like rinsing off after outdoor activities.
The air quality, however, is a silver lining. Today’s Air Quality Index (AQI) sits comfortably in the Code Green range, indicating good air quality across the region. So while pollen might be a challenge, at least the broader air conditions are healthy for most residents.
On the community calendar, the Leverage Series with Wendy Papasan kicked off this morning at the Hope Community Church. This leadership workshop, running through tomorrow, is drawing business enthusiasts and real estate professionals from across the region. If you're looking to sharpen your career visioning skills, it’s not too late to join.
