Tree Pollen Is Very High Today

Tree pollen is very high today in Northern Virginia.  It's at the highest level it has been since last year.  If you are not sure what you are allergic to, but you have sinus issues today, there is a good possibility you are allergic to tree pollen.  

If you are allergic to tree pollen, today is a good day to take allergy medicine and stay indoors.  Keep those windows closed.  If you do go outside today, make sure you leave your shoes at the door and wash your hands as soon as you walk indoors to get that pollen off of you.

Pollen Count Is Low Today!

For the first time in over a month, the pollen count is low in Northern Virginia.  The rain has helped wash the pollen out of the air.  It won't last long though.  Wednesday, we will see one of the highest pollen levels since last year!

The main offender is tree pollen, but grass and weed pollen is starting to have some activity.
