prepare for a “difficult” few weeks amid a sharp rise in grass pollen from this weekend. “The return this week of sunny and warmer weather will lead to the emission of high concentrations of

grass pollen into the air,” the National Aerobiological Surveillance Network [Réseau national de surveillance aérobiologique - RNSA] said in a statement.  Heavy rains in April and at the

start of May had caused the growth of grasses that would give off the pollen now the weather was warmer, it said.  > Le retour d'un temps chaud et ensoleillé pour cette fin de
