I have a dusting on my car, but it is hardly a "yellow explosion". Seems about equal to what i had in MA, but 5 or 6 weeks earlier. Heres to hoping the summer heat is also overstated!
It's not that NC is hotter, it's just that it lasts longer than the north. Humidity is high, but so are many other states. The weather is very overstated here.
Last spring was my first here in the Triangle. I remember enjoying it immensely until one day it looked like a big bomb of pollen went off and turned everything yellow. I can't remember when that was exactly, though. Which plant is responsible for that anyway? I thought the Bradford Pear trees might have had something to do with it, but they are all bloomed here in my neighborhood and starting to get stinky already, so I guess they are not the culprits. Anyone want to give me a heads up so I don't make the mistake of leaving my windows open again like I did last year?
I am in Connecticut but I think that the pollen this year is going to be far worse than any other. I am already sneezing out of control at times and it is only April! Good idea in your area that perhaps you get an early start on preparing for the pollen if that is at all a possibility. Have a nice Spring!

This is just the beginning. The pollen hasn't fully dumped yet.
The summers aren't too much hotter or more humid than in the NE, though they are generally hotter and more humid on average AND they last longer.
