Allergy sufferers in Saxony can continue to breathe easy thanks to the changeable weather. The rain ensures a low concentration of mugwort in the air, as Christina Endler from the Center for Medical-Meteorological Research of the German Weather Service (DWD) said. Mugwort is currently in peak bloom.
The level of grass pollen is also low. This is due to the weather and the fact that the grass pollen season is just coming to an end.
Ambrosia is already occasionally in the air. However, as the season has yet to really get going here and no pollen has been carried into the country by the wind from other regions of Europe, the overall load is also rather low here.
