Japan Times / Jan 9--- Tree pollen levels are expected to be lower than average in 2004 due to the cold summer last year, according to weather information provider Weathernews Inc.
Pollen levels are expected to drop, and some regions will see less than a 10th of the levels of 2003, when large volumes of allergy-causing Japanese cedar and cypress pollen hit the country, it said.
