In the Allergies section, you can click on the "indoor dust and dander" down-arrow on the current day to check the air quality - which is ranked as "Good".

The "indoor dust and dander" thing has me a bit puzzled as it would hard to have dander without a pet inside the room....

Rob, yes I found that yesterday, but more concerned about Pollen counts.

Thanks,

You know... I have allergy issues and mild asthma back home, but it's never been an issue on the island. I never once have even needed my inhaler while in Jamaica. I wonder if the pollen makeup is that much different, as there are certainly many flowering plants around.

I dont think you have much to worry about. I have asthma and allergies, but the pollen in Jamaica didnt start effecting me until a year or two after I moved here. The way allergies seem to work is that you need to be exposed over a length of time to the pollen allergens and it takes time for the body to over-compensate and cause your histamines to go crazy. Lisa doesnt have asthma, but her allergies took a couple years to develop as well.

Rob & Hussyband, appreciate the info!

VVHT, we were in Negril 5/20-5/27. At home (Maryland), my seasonal allergies have been driving me crazy this year, but while in JA, I never needed one allergy pill.
