Down south they get this green pollen that seems to stick to everything, its a pain to get off the car.

We're in Florida now and my car that used to be black is now green.

My wife is suffering terribly with her allergies. I might have to put her on the bus and send her home.

Me? I don't believe in allergies, so I don't have any.

I need Dayquil 3 times a day in may and June, when the cotton wood is flying and the pollen is out. My parents live in South Carolina and I always hear about its hard to wash the pollen off the car.

I remember getting sick on a family trip to St Augustine Florida in April of 2000 with the worst sinuses. Between the plane and the change in pollen conditions, I kept sneezing and feeling miserable. Had to go to an urgent care.

I live near Cleveland, OH and from April until the end of June, I wear a mask while mowing the lawn or other yard work. Keeps the allergic reactions to a minimum.

Mine will start when the shitty Bradford Pear trees bloom in the next 2 weeks. At least in Colorado the blooms didn't last long ubtil a spring snow kocked them down.

Glad that new planting is banned in several states. Very invasive. Several fields full of them around Toledo.
