Same in Houston.....after the freeze and now unseasonably WARM weather, the live oaks are running wild.

Yellow haze all in the air
Lately things, they don't seem the same
Acting funny, but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I wash my car

My live oak is doing something new. Losing all of its leaves. Maybe it didn't survive the freeze. No pollen from it.

You know, in retrospect, maybe it is the pine trees, not my neighbors' live oaks that are producing the pollen. Yes, the live oaks are dumping leaves right now, but the freeze wouldn't kill them.

There was so much pollen when it rained last week that the puddles on the car cover looked like they were tea instead of water...

When we lived in NH I had a teal C4. One day one of the parents at my Sons baseball game asked when I got a new car. It was so covered in pine pollen it looked green.

With all the rain we got this winter it's expected.

Pollen is the worst this year that I can remember in sunny Florida.
