| What Allergy Season Is It In Austin |
So, What Exactly Am I Allergic To Today?
That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? Here's a crash course on Austin's allergy buffet:
Tip: A slow, careful read can save re-reading later.
- December-February: The infamous mountain cedar takes center stage. This little juniper imposter unleashes a pollen apocalypse, causing a condition affectionately known as cedar fever (spoiler alert: there's no actual fever).
- March-May: Bless your heart, it's grass season. Prepare for itchy eyes, a runny nose, and the constant urge to yell, "Achoo!" at the top of your lungs.
- June-August: Mold starts creeping in, especially after those summer downpours. You might feel like you're living in a petri dish.
- September-November: Ragweed rears its ugly head, and suddenly that sweater weather feels a lot less delightful.
Basically, if you're breathing in Austin, you're probably inhaling something you're allergic to.
QuickTip: Repetition signals what matters most.
