Allergy Facts

There are long-term effects of hurricanes on pollen levels. Pollen conditions may normalize or drop below pre-hurricane levels because the vegetation is stunted. This effect can persist for some time depending on the extent of damage. Tree pollen counts, for example, may be lower the next spring if a significant number of trees are lost to the hurricane.
