2018 allergy season10 Sep 2018 17:03
Seems like allergy season 2018 has been quite high especially for grass and tree pollen.
The reason why hay fever has been so bad this year is because of the exceptionally high pollen count, caused by the cold weather which lasted into March.
This has meant the tree pollen season started later this season after the cold spring, which delayed germination.
When the germination started, we experienced a ‘bomb’ of pollen which has led to the intense levels of hay fever.
Last year AGY reported lower than average pollen, so maybe this year we will se a more favourable impact.
