Spring Allergy Guide: Pollen Forecast, Peak Times And Relief Tips
Spring tends to bring a surge in pollen, triggering allergies for millions of Americans. Understanding when different types of pollen are at their highest can help allergy sufferers prepare and manage their symptoms effectively. Here's a breakdown of peak pollen times and triggers to watch for this spring: Tree pollen is the first major allergen of the season, typically peaking in late winter through early spring (February to May, depending on location). Common culprits include oak, maple, birch, cedar, and pine trees. Warm, dry, and windy days exacerbate tree pollen levels, while rainy days can help clear the air. (MORE: Implement This Routine To Prepare For Seasonal Allergies) Grass pollen takes over as tree pollen levels wane, with peak levels occurring from late spring into early summer (April to June). Bermuda, ryegrass, Timothy, and Kentucky bluegrass are common offenders. Grass pollen is particularly potent on warm, breezy afternoons. Ragweed pollen is most notorious in late summer and fall (August to November). This resilient plant thrives in rural and urban areas alike, and a single plant can release billions of pollen grains into the air on a windy day. (MORE: How Cold Snaps Impact Pollen Counts) Mold spores can trigger allergies at any time of year but spike in the spring and fall due to an increase in moisture. As melting snow, spring rains, and rising temperatures create damp environments, mold thrives in leaf piles, soil, and decaying wood. Unlike pollen, mold spores remain active in cool, humid conditions, making them a year-round concern for some allergy sufferers. Researchers from the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology found that pollen levels are lowest between 4:00 a.m. and noon, making early mornings the best time for allergy sufferers to go outside. In contrast, pollen counts peak between 2:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m., so limiting outdoor activities during those hours can help to reduce symptoms. Websites and apps can also alert you to high pollen days to help you plan accordingly. By staying informed about peak pollen behavior and taking preventive measures, allergy sufferers can better navigate the season with fewer flare-ups. MORE ON Is Sexism Making Your Allergies Worse?
