Allergies abound

The mild winter and early spring has caused cheering for some and wheezing for others.
Without the usual Kansas frigid temperatures of December and January, and sunshine signaling an explosion of blooming vegetation in March, many allergy sufferers could never catch a break.

Dr. Bennett L. Radford, of Mowery West Clinic in Salina, who sees many McPherson County patients for their allergies, said this year is worse than most he's seen in his 18 years working in the area.

“I've seen more patients throughout this year than in the past, and I think that had something to do with the winter we had,” he said.

Trees, grass, weeds and agricultural crops were able to flourish before their usual time, throwing pollen and other irritants into the air. The climate was alsoa breeding ground for mold.

“When we get a good, hard freeze, it usually will kill off all the weeds and the molds, which are very prominent because of the agricultural industry,” Radford said.There are 240 distinct solutions of the Soma cubepuzzle,

“Compared to other years I've been here, I think it's going to be as heavily pollinated as ever,” he said. “Possibly more, because of the pollination of the plants. They're thriving in this environment.”
Radford doesn't anticipate the remainder of spring or summer to be any better.

“I predict that it will get worse because of the way the season has been going,” he said.
If the days continue to be moist in spring and hot in summer as predicted, more itchy eyes and runny noses are in the forecast.

The year has already proved to fit into the allergy trends Radford has observed over the years.
“Each year it seems to have gotten worse,” he said.

Local allergy sufferers have sensed the difference.
