I have the same problem, while my wife's allergies clear up when it rains!. I don't know for sure, but it think allergies get worse when it rains if people are allergic to mold!. Rainstorms are usually accompanied by winds and high humidity that put lots of mold spores into the air!. So maybe that's what does it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Rain actually helps keep the pollen levels low, so if you're allergic to pollen it should help!.

The easiest thing would be to go to an allergist and find out what exactly you're allergic to so you can take measures to avoid whatever it is!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You might have an allergy to mold or mildew!. As mentioned in the other post, pollen usually goes down!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
