Allergy Season - Worst in Years

We have felt has been a bad allergy season, now it is official. I just read that Paul Gomes, the director of allergy research in Andover, Mass has reported that this year's weather was perfect for increased pollen counts. He says, "Trees received a healthy amount of precipitation during a very cold winter. This was immediately followed by a sunny, warm and dry spring."

A pollen count is high at 120 - Yet in April, Atlanta recorded a pollen count of 5,722 - it's second highest count ever. In my career, I have never seen so many eye allergies or seen as many bad cases. I guess the drought wasn't all bad?
