Hay fever warning as pollen count high in Greater Manchester today

Hay fever sufferers are being warned that pollen levels will be high on Easter Sunday. According to the Met Office, levels of tree pollen, which currently includes ash, oak, plane and birch, will be at a high level across the North West region today.

People who suffer with hay fever may get a runny or blocked nose, itchy eyes and sneeze a lot while the pollen count is high because of their allergy to pollen grains. Pollen levels will drop down to moderate on Monday and Tuesday, but are expected to be high again on Wednesday next week.

Marco Petagna, a spokesperson for the Met Office, warned of high levels of pollen on Easter Sunday for those with hay fever.
