Spring time is here!
That means warmer weather is around the corner and flowers in full bloom. 
However, it also means it's allergy season.
Storm Watch Team Meteorologist Alex Calamia says that showy flowers are not the cause for your sneezes!
“Allergies come from tiny grains of pollen suspended in the air,” he says.
It is plants like Juniper, Maple and Oaks that release an incredible amount of pollen, which can linger in the air for days, traveling for miles during hot weather.
