If you live on the 10th floor, can you leave your window open without worry of pollen entering?

Question

I live on the 10th floor in Boston and my Cental A/C doesn't come on until April 15th. But I've read that the pollen count has or is about to increase. I don't want to let any in and it does get windy sometimes. But am I shielded from that worry being on the 10th floor?

Answer 1

NO. Pollen will go where the wind goes, so if you have a windy day and the pollen count is up it will blow into your place.
