flag Maine’s drought is prolonging allergy season by trapping pollen and mold in dry, dusty air.

flag Maine’s drought is likely worsening seasonal allergies by keeping pollen and mold spores airborne longer, with ragweed pollen—Maine’s main fall allergen—persisting due to lack of rain. flag Dry conditions increase dust and wildfire smoke, both of which irritate airways, while climate change extends allergy seasons. flag Though data is limited, allergists report more patients with severe symptoms, and environmental experts note higher levels of recirculated old pollen during dry periods.
