You should try to take your shower indoors, in the bathroom, like everyone else.

you're a couple weeks late up there
And when it’s done here, it will hit my place in NH within two weeks

Real bad here in CA too.
I'm not far from eye drops and allergy pills.
Got em' upstairs, downstairs, work, cars, garage...kind of like reading glasses now !!

Looks like pine pollen here about 2 months ago.
Yellow rain. Big stuff.
Doctors say the big stuff is just an irritant.
It's the small stuff you dont see so much that causes allergies.
Maybe that's like life?
My will says it's the little things that drive you crazy.

We had it here about 2-3 weeks ago. Now, it's early Summer snow, with the Cottonwood's...

That's what it looked like around here two months ago. There was so much in the air, my cars were changing colour.
I hit something on the way to work a couple weeks ago. Big thud and all that was left was a bunch of pollen

Yeah it's nasty as hell here too, conifers & oaks both
I walked across the driveway under my side carport
to dump some garbage barefoot
covered in that freaken' nasty yellow dust all over 'blanketing the area'
about any hr later my feet started to swell a lil'
not bad, but sort of uncomfortable
I went into the bathroom wiped the bottoms, between the toes & all around them off
with rubbing alcohol & a rag, it went away within an hr maybe
I also took an antihistamine too just for shits & giggles
I thought that was strange never had that reaction before
when it gets hot I don't wear shoes unless I need too
or going somewhere, never had any real issues until recent years
my eyes especially have been affected
& to a lessor level my sinuses (it comes & goes)
have been screwed/itching for a few years, from May to (thru ?) June now
especially after a long wet winter season, then huge growth in spring
(we've had 3 nasty wet winters in a row/relatively short springs)
when spring & early summer comes, it's yella' crap everywhere
I never used to be effected by any of the crap prior
I know now, I'm probably allergic in someway/to some-degree
to the pollen dust

That looks like pollen from white pines… It looked like smoke down here a few weeks ago from them. I just bush hogged a field for a customer and the pollen coming back at me was insane! It was above the hood of my JD and going right at me…
Up here in NH. Yuk.
