What triggers allergies?

A number of different allergens trigger allergies in people, with some of the most common including pollen, dust, mould and pets.

The Pollen Index measures the potential for pollen to trigger allergic reactions in susceptible people. Pollen levels in the atmosphere will be highest on hot days and on days where a dry wind is blowing. Additionally, light rain overnight or during the early morning will also cause high pollen levels. These are the days when you will experience the telltale symptoms of a runny nose, watery eyes, itchy skin and nasal congestion.

  • Clean surfaces regularly, to avoid the accumulation of dust
  • Avoid feather and down pillows
  • Don't hang sheets or clothing outside to dry on days of high pollen count
  • Avoid high pile carpets, as they offer places for dust and allergens to hide
  • Keep your pet away from bedrooms and off all furniture
  • Wash your pet weekly
  • Try to stay indoors on days of high pollen count
  • Avoid mowing lawns or wear a mask if it is unavoidable

    Bondi Surf Report

    No Surf Image

    Surf: peaky 5-6ft s     Rating: 2.5/5

    Tue 14:44 Dawn report: Although there's hardly anywhere surfable across most of the EB, it's hard to give such an incredible day of swell energy anything less than an 8/10. We've got spectacularly large clean surf with light offshore winds and sunny skies. The beaches are unsurfable but if you're familiar with some of the funky reefs - and have the experience to tackle 'em - there are some unique locations with surfable options this morning. Probably best viewed from the headlands though.
