The Met Office has warned of hay fever hell approaching, with pollen levels swarming to 'high' in much of the UK from tomorrow. 2 Pollen counts will rise to 'high' in half of the UK 2 While they'll dip a little over Friday and Saturday in some areas, Sunday will see 'high' pollen counts in many regions again If you suffer from hay fever, you'll likely be plunged into itchy, sneezy, stuffy misery if you live in affected areas.
Pollen counts are expected to climb to 'high' tomorrow in half of the UK. The South West, South East - including London - and the East of England will all be hit by a pollen bomb as of Thursday. The East and West Midlands will also be affected, as will Yorkshire and the Humber and Wales .
Counts are expected to remain 'high' in all the above areas on Friday except for Yorkshire and the Humber, where pollen levels will fall to 'medium'. West Midlands residents will also get some relief on Saturday with lower pollen levels. But hay fever hell is expected to extend northwards again on Sunday, this time spreading to the North West too.
The North East of England and Northern Ireland will have 'medium' pollen counts throughout.
