When does the spring allergy season end?

AAAAI - Patients & Consumers Center: Topic of the Month:...
Allergy seasons vary throughout the country. In general terms, the early spring is the time for tree pollens. Grass pollen usually is present in the late spring, early summer, and weed pollens are present in the late summer and early fall. In warmer climates, each of these seasons may start earlier; vice versa for colder climates. Some parts of the country have less weed pollens than others, so their prime pollen season may end earlier.
