It's here 🤧 Mountain cedar has officially entered the pollen count chat for the first time this season. Here's what to know when it comes to the not-so-fun allergen:
SAN ANTONIO
– It’s here! Friday morning brought our first recording of mountain cedar to the pollen count this season.No matter how you feel it, many of us will battle through mountain cedar season — which runs from December through February every year.Technically, mountain cedar trees aren’t cedar trees at all! The plant we know as “mountain cedar” is actually ashe juniper .
Around Texas, ashe juniper trees mainly grow in the Hill Country, with male trees pollinating late in the year. By December, wind can easily pick up the tree pollen, spreading the irritating pollen grains across South Central Texas. By Valentine’s Day, most of the tree pollen has blown from the trees or is washed out of the air, and cedar season comes to an end.
It’s important to note that although ashe juniper cause literal and figurative headaches for millions of Texans, the trees are still very beneficial to our local ecosystem. Female mountain cedar trees produce berries, which feed many different birds and other wildlife.Because pollen grains are so light, they are easily transported by the wind. Cold fronts are very common between December and February, when winds pick up from the north.
Because everyone reacts differently to a mountain cedar allergy, most allergists suggest using many different treatments. Try consistently taking an allergy pill or using a nasal spray. Allergy drops are also helpful for many. When all else fails, allergy shots from a specialist is another option.Every morning, on KSAT 12 & KSAT.com, Your Weather Authority reports the
