Oh wow! I mean, I know it's there, because it covers everything outdoors (and generally makes me miserable  ) but to see it all fall from the tree at once is something else! |

No wonder we are sneezing and seeing yellow on everything,

Our throats have been raw this week, post nasal drip is bad from all the pollen.

We're still a couple days away -- I'm sure everything will be covered by the weekend. Last year, even my cat turned green from the pollen.

Yeah the cars are covered with that yellow powder and even with my daily dose of Allegra, my eyes are itchy.

We have seen our pine trees do that IRL when it’s been windy! It’s definitely freaky. And it explains why everyone in my family feels like crap!

One of my favourite Youtubers lives in NJ and showed her new car today - covered in pollen!
I'm really suffering this year in the U.K. - I've been fir chest X-rays just to check today and have been prescribed a ventolin pump as I'm wheezing so bad and feel so miserable .

Really thanking God that I'm not allergic to tree pollen!
However, grass pollen...that's another story.

I've seen that too - huge swirling yellow clouds on a windy day. I am soooo allergic and I love forests... I know the feeling! It gets so bad that we end up running our A/C all summer long even when it’s nice enough to have all the windows open and just run the whole house fan. So sad!  |

We can run our whole house electronic air cleaner without the A/C, but it gets too hot in the house with the air cleaner alone. I try not to use more electricity than necessary, but yes, we use our A/C and ceiling fans more than we would if I could open the windows and let the air circulate more. |
