At the moment pollen counts are high & lots of people are reporting terrible #hayfever

If this is you - then this post may be useful.

This thread is about #thunderstorms & specifically a v.v. rare but serious phenomenon called #thunderstorm asthma.

Normally pollen is too large to enter the lungs, but when a thunderstorm is brewing, updrafts of air can lift whole pollen grains up into the clouds. When exposed to moisture, these grains rupture into tiny pieces and this makes them highly allergenic.

Windy downdrafts then carry these fragments to ground level, resulting in a “pollen shower” & people can inhale the minute fragments deep into their lungs.

If you have hay fever then this can trigger an asthma attack - even if you don't have asthma.
