...the pollen started flying very early in St Augustine this year (in January) because the temps were warmer. By February 1st, 2nd, 3rd, there was a s*#t storm of pollen flying; we could see it suspended in the air going by in waves, on the 20~30 MPH incessant winds (BRUTAL winds this winter in St Augustine, and almost no rain). The worst offender during winter in this area is pollen from the "live oak" trees. This pollen just about killed me. I was on Claritin virtually every day. Never seen the live oak pollen so bad since we've been wintering here. Our SUV was COMPLETELY covered in pollen just ~4 hours after I washed it....every day. And, we were more than 1000 feet away from ANY live oak (ocean front) ! 2016 was the 1st winter I was ever affected by live oak pollen so bad.
My neighbors who are also from up North. When the weather was so nice they opened up all 3 of their patio doors on one wall leading to their lanai........within an hour the entire 'inside' of their house was coated with an inch of green! They had to hire a professional cleaning service to get it all out.
Lesson learned first time living in Florida! :C
