Charleroi, Belgium has a temperate oceanic climate with four distinct seasons. Spring and fall are the main pollen seasons.
During spring, tree pollens like birch, oak, and ash are abundant, causing allergies for many. Fall brings weed pollens, including ragweed, which can also trigger allergies.
Charleroi's climate is influenced by the North Sea, making it moderately rainy with average temperatures ranging from 3°C (37°F) in winter to 19°C (66°F) in summer. Rainfall can help spread pollen, potentially worsening allergy symptoms.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
