Cupressaceae-Taxaceae pollens (cypress, cedar, juniper) will cause a medium risk of allergy around the Mediterranean sea and a low risk in the south-west of the country. The foehn effect forecast for Friday will bring mild, sunny and windy days around the Mediterranean. Temperatures will be above normal for the season, sometimes exceeding 20°C, which will encourage pollen to be released into the air!
The risk of allergy will be low for the first ash and mimosa pollens to appear in the south of the country.
Hazelnut trees (Betulaceae family) are beginning to flower in the rest of the country, with the risk of allergy limited to a low level by the cold, snowy weather.
Allergy sufferers should remain vigilant indoors too. Mites and molds can cause allergic symptoms.
