My dog looks like he’s been snorting coke. Yellow Coke.
Don’t worry, he hasn’t. But he has been sniffing the ground and inadvertently sucking up the yellow pollen that currently covers everything.
Literally everything.
Today when I walked out of school I thought it seemed hazy. But it’s not hazy. There is just a pollen fog blanketing Birmingham. It’s rather disgusting.
Whenever you get in your car, you have to wash the windshield. If you left anything outside (like flip-flops, for example), they will be covered in yellow powder. When you step, little puffs of yellow float up around your feet. I’m pretty sure today I could taste it.
I had never experienced this phenomenon before moving to the south, but it’s definitely one thing I could live without.
Hopefully wherever you are, you’re not covered in yellow dust.

Freezing this AM and 67 this afternoon. My car had a yellow hue, too. I love how testing and pollen coincide.

We’re covered in a yellow-green haze here in East Texas, too. I’ve upped my Zyrtec and I broke out the flip-flops. Time to welcome spring!

Never heard of the yellow pollen. Glad it is something I don’t have to deal with.

Yes, definitely be glad! It’s awful! Luckily it only lasts a couple weeks and then the rain comes and cleans everything up.
