Tree pollen 'high' despite snow

Hard to believe with the snow on the ground, but spring allergies are on the rise.

Local doctors who keep the official pollen counts say levels of tree pollen are high.

Warm weather caused some trees to bud and release pollen early.

If you need medication to control allergies, it's time to take it, regardless of the weather.
