Welcome to pollen season | FOX 5 News
SUMMARY: The first day of spring, or spring equinox, falls on March 20th, and forecasts indicate severe allergy-inducing weather will affect much of the nation. Experts anticipate that warmer, wetter conditions will lead to increased pollen production, triggering allergy symptoms for millions. As seasonal allergies appear to be intensifying due to climate change, health professionals recommend early prevention, advising individuals to start treatment about a month before symptoms typically begin. Common treatments include antihistamines and corticosteroids. It’s also recommended to spend time outdoors during midday when pollen levels are lower and to wash off allergens after exposure.

The first day of spring or the spring equinox is Thursday, March 20, and forecasts estimate much of the nation is in store for severe allergies inducing weather. Medical experts say you should be using the time you have left to prepare — before the pollen really starts exploding.

Trump to address Congress Tuesday: What to expect
SUMMARY: President Trump is set to address Congress, presenting his first month’s achievements while the nation remains divided.

Trump will discuss foreign relations, including a military aid freeze to Ukraine and controversial proposals in the Middle East. His administration’s economic policies, including tariffs on imports, have raised concern. Both sides plan symbolic gestures during the address, reflecting the ongoing tensions surrounding Trump’s presidency.
