Hayfever in North Dakota, is Black Hills area of South Dakota better?
My son and I suffer from hayfever and my four year old son has asthma. We live in North Dakota and my hayfever just about kills me in the fall. I’m assuming its the mold and ragweed. We are looking at moving to the Black Hills area of South Dakota (Rapid City). Would that be better climate for seasonal allergies and asthma? — Gary, North Dakota




Here in Spearfish,we’re having an especially bad allergy season. We think it’s ragweed from Wyoming and the pollen from pines in the Black Hills National Forest. I work ten miles north of the Hills and it’s a bit better there.
