This year's allergy season has been notably prolonged and more intense, affecting various residents across San Jose. Individuals are increasingly experiencing allergy symptoms while trying to enjoy outdoor activities. Oak and Pine tree pollen, along with grass allergens, are the primary culprits this spring. Doctors, including Stanford's Dr. Tina Sindher, highlight that rising temperatures are leading to longer pollen seasons and increased pollen load, resulting in worsening symptoms, particularly among younger children. The article underscores the importance of addressing allergies to maintain a quality outdoor experience.
"The pollen seasons have been lengthening, so the duration of how long these plants are pollinating is longer. Also, the pollen load has gotten bigger."
"We were just sitting here, and I was saying I forgot to take an allergy pill this morning. Because of all the grasses and the winds, I can feel it in my eyes."
