🚩🌩️Thunderstorm Asthma Season🌩️🚩 The arrival of October brings the start of grass pollen season, running from 1 October to 31 December annually, also increasing the chance of Thunderstorm Asthma. Warmer weather, increased amounts of grass pollen in the air and certain types of thunderstorms, when combined, can result in an Epidemic Thunderstorm Asthma (ETSA) event, triggering severe asthma. Symptoms of ETSA include an itchy and runny nose, sneezing, coughing, wheezing and/or chest tightness. Some of these symptoms can become very severe, very quickly, and may require urgent medical assistance. For persons experiencing mild to moderate asthma symptoms or unsure of the severity of what you’re experiencing, please contact us for further assistance.
