>>INTERACTIVE RADAR: Rain helps lower pollen count
The second season is grass pollen season, which began in May and typically lasts through July.
"The trees should really stop pollentating by the end of May beginning of June," said Dr. Terry Moncrief, a local allergy specialist. "Then we are left with grass pollen allergy until August at which time of course is hayfever season which is ragweed and weeds, so there is no clear relief until we get back around to winter and things freeze."

StormCenter 7 Meteorologist McCall Vrydaghs added pollen levels stay elevated when conditions are dry outside.
When pollen season ends, mold spores begin to climb.
