Allergy sufferers should take note that pollen levels in Royal Leamington Spa remain high. This is currently driven by high levels of birch pollen and moderate levels of ash pollen. Additionally, the oak pollen season is expected to begin soon.
These fluctuations are part of a broader atmospheric pattern where competing high and low-pressure systems are causing weather fronts to move slowly across the country. This unsettled start follows a March that was warmer than average but notably dry, with rainfall recorded at only 80% of the long-term average.
