North Carolina Pollen

Recommended Posts

Took the attached photo of the surface of the lake behind my house to graphically show why many of us in the Sandhills of Carolina are under the weather with asthma type problems.

The dock in the picture is approximately 7 meters (22 feet) long, so you can judge the size of the pollen coating the surface.

God puts it there, and He is responsible for removing it....it gradually washes downstream and/or bio degrades.  99% of it is pine pollen and since the pines stopped breeding about a week ago, almost all of it is now gone.  :)

The pine pollen is now gone, but the hardwoods an flowering bushes are putting out the microscopic pollen that really causes the allergy attacks.  my truck went from mustard yellow (pine pollen) to white after the last gully washer, to brown now with the nasty pollen.  

It has been a really bad spring for pollen.
