I still feel like total shit, can’t tell if it’s just my allergies or if I should still be blaming the air quality.

    I’m feeling a lot better now that it’s rained. My sinuses are still in the gutter, but the coughing and general throat irritation are gone

      It probably is a mix of both… my teenaged kid already had seasonal allergies pretty bad this year. once wildfires smoke arrived (we are in Missouri), he developed a cough on top of it. And my eyes sting every day… and even our doggie is sneezing daily now.

    Last week here in Southern Ohio at 4pm it looked like a light fog off in the distance. Next day heavier fog. Next day it looked like the clouds were 20 feet above ground level. Coughing sneezing headaches sinus pressure itchy watery eyes and generally breathing felt like there was no oxygen in the air.

    After the rains it was much better.

    Raining right this minute and other than being muggy it’s much much better! I could rain every day for the next couple weeks and I’d be happy.
