This sunny state often brings out the pollen in nearby trees, which can bring out the tissues from the pockets of allergy sufferers. Temperatures here along with the dry, warm, and windy conditions are ideal for pollen to thrive, and it’s not uncommon for pollen grains to be carried a long way in the wind. The top three trees for pollen in Oklahoma City include poplar, mulberry, aspen, oak, and sycamore. Some may find some relief from their allergies by changing clothes often and bathing after being outdoors for long periods. It's time to keep moving for the next worst city for allergy sufferers on this list.
