The pollen here in Maine is almost the worst I've ever seen. I washed my car 3 hours ago then i go outside and see this. Anyone else have it bad? I call it devil dust cause it makes most people feel yucky.

That looks like it could have been taken here in Fairbanks this year. Did you have a late spring there?
 
That's normal for Georgia in late March/early April.

(...and that's a light dusting compared to what we get!)
 
The worst of that is over here in this part of the Ohio Valley, thank heaven. It's been the roughest spring ever for my allergy problems.
 
WOW! It has to play havoc on people with allergies but in New Mexico we are in such a drought that few pollen producing plants have had enough water to bloom. I could put up with some pollen to get some moisture.

Ill trade you both for some warmer weather plus FFL fees of course ;)
 
GA has the devil-dust in April most every year. The allergists make a bundle off their sniffling patients.

All the Pines, Palms and Oaks dump their pollen about the same time around here, I give up washing the cars for a while, We get covered in it also.
 
Im glad to see im not alone. It might screw up me having a clean car but not my bullets!
 
We get this in March here in Las Vegas. Stupid humans brought in lots of non-native trees to use our limited water and the pollen spreads everywhere on the dry winds. How nice.:rolleyes:

not bad now.

The pollen was pretty rough here a while back but it's on the wane. I think the worst of it came from the pines of which we have many. When the wind would blow a little it looked like a dust clout blowing across the yard. Made me feel kind of rough for a few days. I had to resort to taking Chlorotabs or the generic equal.
peace,

It's rough down here in Sebago.

I thought the first wave in late april was gonna be it. Sadly, not so...

Where in Maine do you hale from?
 
With our forest destroyed in 2011 we didn't have that problem this year. No yellow clouds so thick you couldn't see 100 yards down the highway. Come to think of it now the seasonal pollen releases weren't so bad after all.
