AUSTIN, Texas — Every year, thousands of Central Texans suffer miserably from mountain cedar. Itchy eyes, runny nose -- you probably know the feeling.
If you're one of those people, there is good news for you: We're finally heading toward the end of cedar fever.
Cedar fever had an early start with counts peaking in early to mid-December to approximately 8,000 gr/m3. It was the second highest count we had ever seen for the month of December. However, in the past week, most counts have been less than 100 gr/m3.
Here's Tuesday's count:
Although cedar season typically sticks around until mid-February, we're expecting the potency to drop down in intensity until then. With this season having such an early peak, the end may arrive sooner than normal.
